Slope Intercept Form (Final Practice)

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

Back

The 'm' represents the slope of the line, indicating how steep the line is.

Front

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

Back

The 'b' represents the y-intercept, which is the point where the line crosses the y-axis.

Front

What kind of slope does a line with a positive slope have?

Back

A line with a positive slope rises from left to right.

Front

What kind of slope does a line with a negative slope have?

Back

A line with a negative slope falls from left to right.

Front

What does a slope of 0 indicate about a line?

Back

A slope of 0 indicates a horizontal line.

Front

What does an undefined slope indicate about a line?

Back

An undefined slope indicates a vertical line.

Front

If a line has a slope of 3 and a y-intercept of 2, what is the equation in slope-intercept form?

Back

The equation is y = 3x + 2.

Front

How do you write an equation in slope-intercept form if you know the slope and a point on the line?

Back

Use the point-slope form and convert it to slope-intercept form.

Front

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

Back

The slope is -2.
