FLASHCARD QUESTION
Front
What is the Y-INTERCEPT?
Back
The Y-intercept is the point where a line crosses the Y-axis. It is represented as (0, b) in the coordinate plane, where b is the value of the Y-intercept.

FLASHCARD QUESTION
Front
How do you identify the Y-INTERCEPT from a graph?
Back
To identify the Y-intercept from a graph, look for the point where the line intersects the Y-axis. The Y-coordinate of this point is the Y-intercept.

FLASHCARD QUESTION
Front
What is the SLOPE of a line?
Back
The slope of a line measures its steepness and direction. It is calculated as the change in Y divided by the change in X (rise over run).

FLASHCARD QUESTION
Front
How do you calculate the SLOPE from two points (x1, y1) and (x2, y2)?
Back
The slope (m) can be calculated using the formula: m = (y2 - y1) / (x2 - x1).

FLASHCARD QUESTION
Front
What does a positive slope indicate?
Back
A positive slope indicates that as the X value increases, the Y value also increases, meaning the line rises from left to right.

FLASHCARD QUESTION
Front
What does a negative slope indicate?
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 formula for the slope-intercept form of a line?
Back
The slope-intercept form of a line is given by the equation: y = mx + b, where m is the slope and b is the Y-intercept.
