Question

Rearrange the slope formula y=mx+b for the quantity of interest m .

Answer 1

whats frac

Answer 2

To rearrange the slope formula \( y = mx + b \) to solve for \( m \), follow these steps:

1. Subtract \( b \) from both sides of the equation:
\[
y - b = mx
\]

2. Now, divide both sides by \( x \) (assuming \( x \neq 0 \)):
\[
m = \frac{y - b}{x}
\]

So, the rearranged formula for \( m \) is:
\[
m = \frac{y - b}{x}
\]

Answer 3

The term "frac" is often used as an abbreviation for "fraction," particularly in mathematical contexts or programming languages. It refers to a way to express a part of a whole. For example, \(\frac{a}{b}\) represents the fraction where \(a\) is the numerator (the top part) and \(b\) is the denominator (the bottom part).

In the context of my previous response, I used the notation \(\frac{y - b}{x}\) to denote the fraction where \(y - b\) is the numerator and \(x\) is the denominator.
