Slope-Intercept Form

Front

What is the correct slope-intercept form?

Back

y = mx + b

Front

What do the variables 'm' and 'b' represent in the slope-intercept form?

Back

m represents the slope of the line, and b represents the y-intercept.

Front

How do you identify the slope from the equation y = 4x + 2?

Back

The slope is the coefficient of x, which is 4.

Front

What is the y-intercept in the equation y = 4x + 2?

Back

The y-intercept is the constant term, which is 2.

Front

Given the equation y = (3/2)x + 3, what is the slope?

Back

The slope is 3/2.

Front

Given the equation y = (3/2)x + 3, what is the y-intercept?

Back

The y-intercept is 3.

Front

What is the general form of a linear equation?

Back

The general form of a linear equation is Ax + By = C.

Front

How can you convert the general form of a linear equation to slope-intercept form?

Back

Isolate y on one side of the equation to get y = mx + b.

Front

What does a positive slope indicate about a line?

Back

A positive slope indicates that the line rises from left to right.

Front

What does a negative slope indicate about a line?

Back

A negative slope indicates that the line falls from left to right.
