FLASHCARD QUESTION

Front

What is the slope of a line?

Back

The slope of a line is a measure of its steepness, calculated as the ratio of the rise (vertical change) to the run (horizontal change).

2.

FLASHCARD QUESTION

Front

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

Back

The slope (m) is calculated using the formula: m = (y2 - y1) / (x2 - x1).

3.

FLASHCARD QUESTION

Front

What does a positive slope indicate about a line?

Back

A positive slope indicates that as the x-value increases, the y-value also increases, meaning the line rises from left to right.

4.

FLASHCARD QUESTION

Front

What does a negative slope indicate about a line?

Back

A negative slope indicates that as the x-value increases, the y-value decreases, meaning the line falls from left to right.

FLASHCARD QUESTION

Front

What is the y-intercept of a line?

Back

The y-intercept is the point where the line crosses the y-axis, represented as (0, b) in the equation y = mx + b.

6.

FLASHCARD QUESTION

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.

7.

FLASHCARD QUESTION

Front

How do you find the y-intercept from the equation y = 3x + 5?

Back

The y-intercept is 5, which is the value of b in the equation.
