Front

What is the definition of zero slope?

Back

A zero slope indicates that a line is horizontal, meaning there is no change in the y-value as the x-value changes.

Front

What is another term for the zero of a line?

Back

X-intercept.

Front

How do you determine the slope from the equation y - 5 = 2(x - 3)?

Back

The slope is 2, which is the coefficient of x in the slope-intercept form.

Front

What is the formula for direct variation?

Back

The formula for direct variation is y = kx, where k is the constant of variation.

Front

What does the variable 'k' represent in direct variation?

Back

The variable 'k' represents the constant of variation.

Front

What is the slope-intercept form of a linear equation?

Back

The slope-intercept form is y = mx + b, where m is the slope and b is the y-intercept.

Front

How can you find the x-intercept of a linear equation?

Back

To find the x-intercept, set y to 0 and solve for x.

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.

Front

What is the relationship between slope and steepness of a line?

Back

The greater the absolute value of the slope, the steeper the line.
