How do you determine the slope from a graph?

The slope can be determined by selecting two points on the line, calculating the rise and run between them, and using the formula $$m = \frac{\text{rise}}{\text{run}}$$ .

What is the rise/run method for finding slope?

The rise/run method involves counting the vertical change (rise) and the horizontal change (run) between two points on the line.

Given the equation $$y = 2x - 5$$ , what is the y-intercept?

The y-intercept is -5, which is the value of y when x = 0.

How do you write the equation of a line given the slope and y-intercept?

Use the slope-intercept form: $$y = mx + b$$ , substituting m for the slope and b for the y-intercept.

What is the slope of the line represented by the points (1, 2) and (3, 6)?

The slope is $$m = \frac{6 - 2}{3 - 1} = \frac{4}{2} = 2$$ .

How can you tell if two lines are parallel?

Two lines are parallel if they have the same slope but different y-intercepts.

How can you tell if two lines are perpendicular?

Two lines are perpendicular if the product of their slopes is -1 (i.e., one slope is the negative reciprocal of the other).

What is the significance of the slope in real-world applications?

The slope can represent rates of change, such as speed, cost per item, or growth rates in various contexts.
