Why do you use y-intercept for b in the slope intercept form?
If the slope-intercept equation is in the form: y = mx + b then the y-coordinate of the intercept is b
When creating a line using the slope-intercept form always plot atleast three?
In the case that you are using Slope-Intercept Form, no, you only plot two points: the y-intercept and one other point. If you don't use Slope-Intercept Form, then you have to use three points.
What jobs would you use slope intercept form in?
an accountant
When is it good to use a slope formula?
When formatting the equation of a given line into slope-intercept form.
When should you use the slope-intercept form?
When you are trying to graph an equation.
Describe a situation in which point-slope form would be more useful than slope-intercept form?
You use point-slope form to find the equation of a line if you only have a point and a slope or if you are just given two point. Usually you will convert point-slope form to slope-intercept form to make it easier to use.
Why do you use y-intercept for b in the slope intercept form?
If the slope-intercept equation is in the form: y = mx + b then the y-coordinate of the intercept is b
Write an equation of the line that has a slope of -7 and y intercept 6 in slope intercept form?
Use the slope-intercept form of the line: y = mx + b Here, "m" is the slope, and "b" is the y-intercept, so just replace these variables with the corresponding slope and intercept - and you got your equation. And PLEASE don't ask lots of almost-identical questions, with different slopes and y-intercept. It is really easy to replace the slope and the intercept in this equation.

How do you use slope intercept form?
y=mx+b where m=slope and b=y-intercept. x and y are variables
What word does the m stand for in slope-intercept form?
m stands for "modulus of slope"; modulus means "number used to measure." We now call the slope just simply "slope" but still use "m" to indicate it in the formula.

How can you use slope intercept form to write an equation of a line givven its slope and y intercept?
y intercept is b and slope is m Equation is y = mx + b For example if y intercept (where x = 0) is -3 and slope is 4 then y = 4x-3
How do you find slope intercept form when given coordinates?
Use: (y2 -y1)/(x2 -x1) to find the slope. Use: y -y1 = m(x -x1) to find the slope intercept equation whereas m is the slope.
What is an equation of the line that passes through the point 50 and is perpendicular to the line 5x 6y24 express your answer in slope-intercept form?
Here is how to solve it. First, find the slope of the given line. To do this, solve the equation for "y". That will convert the equation to the slope-intercept form. From there, you can immediately read off the slope. Since parallel lines have the same slope, the line you are looking for will have the same slope. Now you need to use the point-slope form of the equation, with the given point, and the slope you just calculated. Finally, solve this equation for "y" to bring it into the requested slope-intercept form.
