B: The common notation for the "slope" term of an equation specified as Y = a + bX. Mathematically, the b-slope term indicates the change in the value of the Y variable resulting from a unit change in the value of the X variable.

For example, if Y represents consumption and X represents national income, b measures induced consumption expenditures.
