you take the y=mx+b alright then you plug in your numbers. So say you got (5,4)(X,Y) and the slope was 2 the equation would then be 4=2(5)+b. Then you do 2x5 which equals 10. Then you divide the 10 on both sides. the 10 and the 10 cancel each other out and the 4/10 =2/5 and then 2/5=b. There you have it!
