The velocity v in feet per second of a freely falling object that has fallen h feet can represent by v=8h1/2find the distance that the object has fallen if the velocity is 96 feet per second

Where m is the slope of the line and b is the y-intercept of the line, or the y-coordinate of the point at which the line crosses the y-axis. to write an equation in slope-intercept form, given a graph of that equation, pick two points on the line and use them to find the slope. this is the value of m in the equation.
