Front

What is the y-intercept?

Back

The y-intercept is the point where a line crosses the y-axis, represented as (0, y).

Front

How do you find the y-intercept from an equation?

Back

To find the y-intercept from an equation in the form y = mx + b, set x = 0. The value of y when x = 0 is the y-intercept.

Front

What does a positive slope indicate about a line?

Back

A positive slope indicates that as x increases, y also increases, meaning the line rises from left to right.

Front

What does a negative slope indicate about a line?

Back

A negative slope indicates that as x increases, y decreases, meaning the line falls from left to right.

What is the y-intercept of the line represented by the points (0, 3) and (2, 5)?

Back

The y-intercept is (0, 3).

Front

How can you determine the y-intercept from a graph?

Back

The y-intercept can be determined by locating the point where the line crosses the y-axis.

Front

What is the y-intercept in the equation y = -2x + 5?

Back

The y-intercept is 5, represented as (0, 5).
