Ax + By = C. 6x + 2y = 4. A slope-intercept form equation is when it is set up y=mx+b. Y = - 3x + 2. In order to go from one form to another, all you have to do is change the order of the given numbers. First you want to move the Ax to the opposite side of the equation, by either adding or subtracting it.
Mercy Rule Law and Legal Definition. Mercy rule is a principle of evidence law which allows a criminal defendant to offer character evidence as a defense to a criminal charge.
The rule requiring suppression of such evidence, known as the exclusionary rule, applies in all federal and state cases, according to the Supreme Courtâs ruling in Mapp v. Ohio, 367 U.S. 643 (1961). Since its ruling in Mapp, the Supreme Court has set limits on the applicability of the exclusionary rule.
