Know the slope (m) and a point (x, y) on the line? Substitute them into y = mx + b and solve for b.

Found a random point on the line? Throw it into y = mx + b with your slope, then solve for b. Boom!

Get slope (m) and a point (x, y) on the line. Substitute into y = mx + b, and solve away for b!

Just plug in a point (x, y) on your line and the slope (m) into y = mx + b, then solve for b!
