In the context of a linear equation, the constant, also known as the y-intercept, can be determined with the help of the slope and a designated point on the line. By reconfiguring the slope-intercept equation y = mx + b, where m signifies the slope and (x, y) represents the point, one can calculate 'b', which stands for the constant.
