Slope Intercept Form

Front

What is the slope-intercept form of a linear equation?

Back

y = mx + b, where m is the slope and b is the y-intercept.

Front

What does the 'm' represent in the slope-intercept form?

Back

The 'm' represents the slope of the line.

Front

What does the 'b' represent in the slope-intercept form?

Back

The 'b' represents the y-intercept of the line.

Front

If the slope is 2/3 and the y-intercept is -3, what is the equation of the line?

Back

y = 2/3x - 3.

Front

How do you find the y-intercept from the equation y = 4x + 5?

Back

The y-intercept is 5.

Front

What is the slope of the line represented by the equation y = -2x + 1?

Back

The slope is -2.

Front

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

Back

The line is horizontal.

Front

If a line has an undefined slope, what does that indicate about the line?

Back

The line is vertical.

Front

How do you graph the equation y = 3x + 2?

Back

Start at (0, 2) on the y-axis, then use the slope of 3 to rise 3 units and run 1 unit to the right.

Front

What is the slope of the line that passes through the points (1, 2) and (3, 6)?

Back

The slope is 2.
