Chapter Two Test Review (Algebra)

Front

What is the slope of a line perpendicular to the line represented by the equation y = 3x + 5?

Back

m = -\frac{1}{3}

Front

What does the variable 'm' represent in the equation of a line?

Back

Slope

Front

How do you find the x-intercept of the equation 5x - 3y = 15?

Back

Set y = 0 and solve for x, resulting in the x-intercept (3, 0).

Front

How do you find the y-intercept of the equation 5x - 3y = 15?

Back

Set x = 0 and solve for y, resulting in the y-intercept (0, -5).

Front

What is the slope of the line that passes through the points (-4, 6) and (-3, -6)?

Back

m = -12

Front

What is the general form of the equation of a line?

Back

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

Front

What does it mean for two lines to be perpendicular?

Back

Two lines are perpendicular if the product of their slopes is -1.

Front

How can you determine if a given graph represents the equation y = 3x + 6?

Back

Check if the line has a slope of 3 and a y-intercept of 6.

Front

What is the slope of a line that is horizontal?

Back

The slope of a horizontal line is 0.

Front

What is the slope of a line that is vertical?

Back

The slope of a vertical line is undefined.
