Rene Decartes is the father of Analytical Geometry. He was a French Mathematician and theologian who is believed to have discovered the slope formula according to many experts. He was said to have provided a method to solve the problem of lines and slopes in mathematics by his prowess in Algebra and Geometry.The basic slope formula is y=mx+b while the more complex point-slope formula is y-yl=m(x-x1).

Renee Descartes discovered the slope intercept formula: y=mx+b
The formula for slope would be y= mx + b Standard form would be Ax+By= C There is many of them
It was the French mathematician Rene Descartes.
Slope intercept form. It's not just college algebra, it's algebra. It defines the slope of well... a slope. Y=mx+b. M in the equation is the slope and b is always the y-intercept. So if you want to find the slope of a line on a graph, this would most likely be the most common equation in algebra to find it.

Algebra was invented in Egypt and Babylon in 862bc !!!!
Algebra was invented by Muslims in ancient times.
Given a straight line with slope m and a point (p,q) on the line, the point-slope formula of the line is (y - q) = m(x - p) It is used to represent a straight line in the Cartesian plane. This allows techniques of algebra to be used in solving problems in geometry.
