Lines r and m are parallel or line r is line m continued
By tradition , one standard equation for a line is denoted by y = mx + b. Here m stands for the slope of the line and b is the Y-intercept, the place where the line crosses the Y-axis. I do not know why m stands for slope. M often is used for a set, the reason being that Menge means set in German.
line in data is y=-2X+6 The perpendicular line will have a slope of = +1/2 Note : m X m' = -1 , m= slope of line 1 ; m'= slope of perpendicular line to line 1
M with a line above it is the Roman numeral for a million.
Y = mX + b This is the general form of the equation of a straight line graphed on X-Y coordinates. 'm' is the slope of the line 'b' is the Y-intercept, that is, the number on the Y-axis where the line crosses it
