Slope Intercept Form Review

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 slope represent in a linear equation?

Back

The slope represents the rate of change of y with respect to x, indicating how steep the line is.

Front

What does the y-intercept represent in a linear equation?

Back

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

Front

If the slope is 3 and the y-intercept is 6, what is the equation?

Back

y = 3x + 6

Front

From the equation y = 3/2x + 3, what is the slope and y-intercept?

Back

Slope: 3/2, Y-intercept: (0, 3)

Front

How do you write the equation with a slope of 2/3 and a y-intercept of -3?

Back

y = 2/3x - 3

Front

What is the equation of the line with a slope of -3 passing through (-1, -2)?

Back

y = -3x - 5

Front

What is the equation of the line with a slope of 2 passing through (-4, -7)?

Back

y = 2x + 1

Front

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

Back

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