Key Concepts

Slope

The slope of a line quantifies its steepness and direction, calculated as the ratio of the vertical change (rise) to the horizontal change (run) between any two points on the line. In the equation y = mx + b, the coefficient 'm' directly gives the slope.

Slope-Intercept Form

The slope-intercept form of a linear equation is written as y = mx + b, where 'm' represents the slope and 'b' represents the y-intercept. This form is useful because it immediately shows the slope of the line and where the line crosses the y-axis.
