"m" stands for slope


What word does the m stand for in slope intercept form?

Modulus.


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.


Example of a slope intercept form?

Slope intercept form is y=mx+b the m would stand for your slope and b would stand for you y intercept written as (0,b)


What does the m in algebra stand for?

If you are talking about linear graphs, m refers to the gradient (aka slope or rate of change).


Are variables expressed as many different things in Algebra?

Sometimes... some variables can only stand for one thing, like m= slope, but "x" is a variable that can stand for just about anything; slope, axis, and equations.


What does the m stand for in a slope formula?

In the slope formula, the "m" represents the slope of a line. It quantifies the rate of change of the y-coordinate with respect to the x-coordinate, indicating how steep the line is. In the context of the slope-intercept form of a linear equation, (y = mx + b), "m" reflects how much y changes for a one-unit increase in x.


Who abbreviated m for slope?

M refers to the modulus of the slope.


Why is the letter m used to stand for slope like how y equals mx plus b?

It is an arbitrary convention.


How do you find slope altitude?

If the slope of a line is m then the slope of an altitude to that line is -1/m.
