Topic 2 Test

Front

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

Back

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

Front

What does the 'm' represent in the equation y = mx + b?

Back

The 'm' represents the slope of the line.

Front

How do you calculate the slope between two points (x1, y1) and (x2, y2)?

Back

Slope (m) = (y2 - y1) / (x2 - x1).

Front

What is the slope of the line that passes through the points (2, 4) and (6, 12)?

Back

The slope is 2.

Front

If m = 3 and b = 6, what is the slope-intercept equation?

Back

y = 3x + 6.

Front

What is the definition of slope in a graph?

Back

Slope is a measure of the steepness of a line, calculated as the rise over run.

Front

What does the 'b' represent in the equation y = mx + b?

Back

The 'b' represents the y-intercept of the line.

Front

Which of the following represents a linear equation: Ax + By = C, y = mx + b, or both?

Back

Both represent linear equations.

Front

What is the slope of a line that is horizontal?

Back

The slope is 0.

Front

What is the slope of a line that is vertical?

Back

The slope is undefined.
