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

Back

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

What does a positive slope indicate about a line?

Back

A positive slope indicates that as x increases, y also increases, resulting in an upward slant of the line.

What is the significance of the point where a line crosses the y-axis?

Back

The point where a line crosses the y-axis is called the y-intercept, and it represents the value of y when x is 0.

Front

How do you determine the slope from two points on a line?

Back

The slope (m) can be determined using the formula m = (y2 - y1) / (x2 - x1), where (x1, y1) and (x2, y2) are the coordinates of the two points.
