Answer:

[tex]\displaystyle m=\frac{y-b}{x}[/tex]

Step-by-step explanation:

We are given the equation:

[tex]y=mx+b[/tex]

And we want to rewrite it in terms of m.

We can subtract b from both sides:

[tex]y-b=mx[/tex]

Finally, dividing both sides by x yields:

[tex]\displaystyle m=\frac{y-b}{x}[/tex]

In conclusion:

[tex]\displaystyle m=\frac{y-b}{x}[/tex]
