That is the equation of a line.
y = m*x + b
x is a changing variable to plot on the x-axis.
m is the slope of the line, or how slanted the line is.
b is the y-intercept, or where the line crosses on the y-axis.

In the linear equation is the variable for the y intercept b or c ie y equals mx plus b or y equals mx plus b?
in the equation: y=mx+b , the y-intercept is represented by "b".
In the equation for a straight line y equals mx plus b what does the variable b represen?
b represents the intercept on the y-axis
In the eqaution for a straight line y equals mx plus b what does the variable b represent?
b is the variable for the y-intercept, or how far up or down the graph is shifted.
Is y equals mx plus b the same thing as y equals b plus mx or do you need to convert it?
same thing. but its easy to change y=b+mx to y=mx+b
What does x equal with y equals mx plus b?
In the equation y = mx + b, x is the independent variable.Also, m is the slope, b is the y-intercept, and y is the dependent variable.

Is y equals mx plus b different from f x equals mx plus b?
yes
In the equation for a straight line y equals mx plus b what does the variable b represen?
b represents the intercept on the y-axis
In the eqaution for a straight line y equals mx plus b what does the variable b represent?
b is the variable for the y-intercept, or how far up or down the graph is shifted.
What is x in y equals mx plus b?
The x in y=mx+b is the independent variable. You could solve for x, making this a function of y, with simple algebra. y = mx + b y - b = mx (y-b)/m = x
Is y equals mx plus b the same thing as y equals b plus mx or do you need to convert it?
same thing. but its easy to change y=b+mx to y=mx+b
What does x equal with y equals mx plus b?
In the equation y = mx + b, x is the independent variable.Also, m is the slope, b is the y-intercept, and y is the dependent variable.
Y equals mX plus b rearrange to solve for b?
y = mx + b y - mx = b
How do you solve y equals mx plus b solve for b?
b = y - mx.
What does the b in y equals mx plus b mean?
Fbr
Give examples of y equals mx plus b?
y=mx+b mx+b=y (mx means multipy.) Hope this helps! -natali4everca
What is the slope of y equals mx plus b?
