What is the slope of a linear equation?

Back

The slope of a linear equation represents the rate of change of the dependent variable (y) with respect to the independent variable (x). It is calculated as the rise over run, or the change in y divided by the change in x.

'b' represents the y-intercept, which is the point where the line crosses the y-axis.

How do you find the y-intercept of a linear equation?

Back

To find the y-intercept, set x = 0 in the equation and solve for y.

What does a positive slope indicate about a linear graph?

Back

A positive slope indicates that as x increases, y also increases, resulting in an upward slant from left to right.

What does a negative slope indicate about a linear graph?

Back

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