Slope Intercept Form

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.

Front

What does the slope (m) represent in a linear equation?

Back

The slope (m) represents the rate of change of y with respect to x, indicating how steep the line is.

Front

What does the y-intercept (b) represent in a linear equation?

Back

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

Front

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

Back

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

Front

What type of line does the equation y = 10 represent?

Back

A horizontal line.

Front

What type of line runs parallel to the x-axis?

Back

A horizontal line.

Front

What is the slope of the line that passes through the points (0, -2) and (3, -4)?

Back

The slope is -2/3.

Front

What is the equation of a vertical line that passes through x = 5?

Back

The equation is x = 5.

Front

What is the graph of y = 3?

Back

A horizontal line that crosses the y-axis at 3.

Front

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

Back

It indicates a horizontal line.
