    Rene Descartes made important contributions to mathematics including developing analytic geometry which represents geometric shapes using algebraic equations. Linear equations in two variables can be represented as mathematical sentences with the general form y = mx + b, where m is the slope and b is the y-intercept. These equations graph as straight lines. Examples are provided of linear equations in two variables and how to determine the slope and y-intercept of each.
