In coordinate geometry, each point in the plane is identified by an ordered pair, (x,y) which are known as the coordinates of the point. The equation of any straight line in the coordinate plane can be written in the form y = mx + c so that the coordinates of each point on the line satisfies this equation (and the coordinates of a point outside the line doed not satisfies it). The equation in this form is known as the slope-intercept form. m is the slope and c is the intercept.
