2mx+b=y
Swap sides so that all variable terms are on the left hand side.
2mx=y-b
Subtract b from both sides.
2xm=y-b
The equation is in standard form.
\frac{2xm}{2x}=\frac{y-b}{2x}
Divide both sides by 2x.
m=\frac{y-b}{2x}
Dividing by 2x undoes the multiplication by 2x.
2mx+b=y
Swap sides so that all variable terms are on the left hand side.
b=y-2mx
Subtract 2mx from both sides.
2mx+b=y

2mx=y-b
Subtract b from both sides.
