I can appreciate that writing linear equations in the form y = mx + c helps to reveal the structure.
Show transcript
Linear relationships can be written in a variety of algebraic forms.
It is possible to identify the gradient and y-intercept when the equation is written in the form y=mx+c.
The m comes from the French "monter" (to climb/ascend) and the c from "commencer" (to start).
Linear equations can be rearranged in order to reveal the gradient and y-intercept.
