Question

Choose the correct term to complete each sentence.

An equation of the form $\left(Ax+By=C,y=mx+b\right)$ is in slope-intercept form.

Step-by-Step Solution

Answer

The correct term to complete the given statement is $y=mx+b$.

Step-1 – Describing slope intercept form of an equation

$y=mx+b$ is the slope intercept form of writing the equation of a straight line. In the equation '$y=mx+b$', '$b$' is the point, where the line intersects the 'y- axis' and 'm' denotes the slope of the line. The slope or gradient of a line describes how steep a line is.

Step-2 – Determining the variables in y = m x + b

$y=$Y-coordinate

$m=$Slope

$x=$X-coordinate

$b=$Y-intercept

Step-3 – Determining the final term

The correct term is $y=mx+b$.
