Equation of a straight line is: y = mx+c whereas m is the slope and c is the y intercept
The general equation is y = mx + c. m is the slope of the straight line. c is the y intercept. This is readily obtained by putting x = 0 then the general equation simplifies to y = c.
When the equation is given in the standard form: y = mx + c, the gradient is m. So here, y = 7x + 2 means m, the gradient, is 7.
The equation of a line is said to be in slope intercept form if it is written as: y = mx + c where the coefficient of y is 1. When expressed in this form, the slope of the line is m and the y-intercept is c.
