Back

The y-intercept is 4, represented as the point (0, 4).

Front

If a line has a slope of 0, what does that indicate about the line?

Back

A slope of 0 indicates a horizontal line, meaning it does not rise or fall.

Front

What does a negative slope indicate about a line?

Back

A negative slope indicates that as x increases, y decreases, resulting in a downward slant from left to right.

Front

Back

Start at the y-intercept (0, 3) and use the slope (4) to rise 4 units and run 1 unit to the right.

What is the significance of the point (0, b) in a linear equation?

Back

The point (0, b) is the y-intercept, where the line crosses the y-axis.
