How do you graph y=mx+b?

Answer 1

Well, m and b can be any numbers. If not, please write down the whole question again with numbers. Here are few my examples:

If m=2 and b=3 or m=2 and b=-5

If b=0 but m=2, 1 or 0.5

To graph the equation ( y = mx + b ):

Identify the slope (( m )) and y-intercept (( b )).
Plot the y-intercept (( 0, b )).
Use the slope to find a second point. For example, if ( m = 2 ), move up 2 units and right 1 unit from the y-intercept.
Draw a straight line through the two points to represent the graph of the equation.
