Front

Define slope in mathematical terms.

Back

Slope is the ratio of the rise (change in y) over the run (change in x) between two points on a line.

Front

What does a positive slope indicate about a line?

Back

A positive slope indicates that as x increases, y also increases.

Front

What does a negative slope indicate about a line?

Back

A negative slope indicates that as x increases, y decreases.

Front

What is the formula for slope between two points (x1, y1) and (x2, y2)?

Back

Slope (m) = (y2 - y1) / (x2 - x1)

Front

What is the y-intercept of a line?

Back

The y-intercept is the point where the line crosses the y-axis (x=0).
