Find the slope through two points.Find x- and y-intercepts.Use slope-intercept form y = mx + b.Interpret the sign of the slope.
📚 Quick Recap
Every linear equation corresponds to a straight line on a graph — and understanding slope and intercepts lets you sketch or interpret that line without plotting dozens of points.
