Define slope in the context of a linear equation.

Back

Slope is a measure of the steepness of a line, calculated as the change in y divided by the change in x (rise over run).

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.

Front

How do you find the y-intercept from a linear equation in slope-intercept form?

The slope of the line is 2, indicating it rises 2 units for every 1 unit it moves to the right.
