Slope Intercept Review

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 'm' represent in the equation y = mx + b?

Back

The 'm' represents the slope of the line.

Front

What does 'b' represent in the equation y = mx + b?

Back

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

Front

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

Back

The slope (m) is calculated as m = (y2 - y1) / (x2 - x1).

Front

What type of slope does a line that rises from left to right have?

Back

A line that rises from left to right has a positive slope.

Front

What type of slope does a line that falls from left to right have?

Back

A line that falls from left to right has a negative slope.

Front

What is the slope of the line represented by the equation y = 4x + 1?

Back

The slope of the line is 4.

Front

What is the slope of the line represented by the equation y = -2x + 5?

Back

The slope of the line is -2.

Front

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

Back

A slope of 0 indicates a horizontal line.

Front

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

Back

An undefined slope indicates a vertical line.
