Slope Intercept Form Calculator
Calculate and visualize linear equations in slope-intercept form (y = mx + b)
Understanding Slope Intercept Form
The slope-intercept form of a linear equation is written as y = mx + b, where:
- m is the slope (rate of change)
- b is the y-intercept (where the line crosses the y-axis)
- x and y are coordinates on the line
