Mathematics

This is about rewriting a linear equation into the standard form $y = mx + b$, where you can instantly read off the slope and $y$-intercept. The key move is to isolate $y$ by expanding the right side and then simplifying—treat it like any other algebra problem where you undo operations step by step. Once $y$ stands alone on the left, you'll have a clean picture of how steep the line is and where it crosses the $y$-axis.
