Answer
$$x = \frac{y - b}{m}$$
The original equation is the slope-intercept form for a line.
Work Step by Step
To solve this equation for $x$, you need to isolate $x$.
First, subtract $b$ from both sides:
$$y - b = mx$$
Now, you can divide by $m$:
$$x = \frac{y - b}{m}$$
The original equation is the slope-intercept form of a line.
