Answer: \(m=\dfrac{y-b}{x}\)
Step-by-step explanation:
Given: The slope-intercept form of a linear equation is \(y = mx+ b\), where x and y are coordinates of an ordered pair, m is the slope of the line, and b is where the line crosses the y-axis.
To solve the above equation for m , first we subtract b from both sides in the above equation, we get
\(y-b=mx\)
Now for the second step, we divide x on both sides of the equation, we get
\(m=\dfrac{y-b}{x}\)
Hence, the equivalent equation solved for the slope, m will be :
\(m=\dfrac{y-b}{x}\)
