FLASHCARD QUESTION

Front

What is a linear graph?

Back

A linear graph is a graph that represents a linear equation, showing a straight line on a coordinate plane. It depicts the relationship between two variables that have a constant rate of change.

FLASHCARD QUESTION

Front

What is the slope of a line?

Back

The slope of a line is a measure of its steepness, calculated as the ratio of the vertical change (rise) to the horizontal change (run) between two points on the line.

3.

FLASHCARD QUESTION

Front

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

Back

The slope (m) can be calculated using the formula: m = (y2 - y1) / (x2 - x1).

4.

FLASHCARD QUESTION

Front

What is the y-intercept of a linear equation?

Back

The y-intercept is the point where the line crosses the y-axis, represented as (0, b) in the equation y = mx + b, where b is the y-intercept.

FLASHCARD QUESTION

Front

What is the x-intercept of a linear equation?

Back

The x-intercept is the point where the line crosses the x-axis, represented as (a, 0) in the equation y = mx + b, where a is the x-intercept.

6.

FLASHCARD QUESTION

Front

What does the equation y = mx + b represent?

Back

This equation represents the slope-intercept form of a linear equation, where m is the slope and b is the y-intercept.

7.

FLASHCARD QUESTION

Front

How do you convert the equation 8y = 2x - 4 to slope-intercept form?

Back

To convert to slope-intercept form, solve for y: y = (1/4)x - 1/2.
