3.5 Review Graphing In Slope Intercept

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

How do you identify the slope from the equation y = 1/3x - 2?

Back

The slope is 1/3.

Front

What does the y-intercept represent in the equation y = -3x + 4?

Back

The y-intercept is the point where the line crosses the y-axis, which is 4 in this case.

Front

How can you determine if a graph represents a positive or negative slope?

Back

A positive slope rises from left to right, while a negative slope falls from left to right.

Front

What is the slope of the line represented by the equation y = 3x?

Back

The slope is 3.

Front

If a line has a slope of -3, what does this indicate about the line's direction?

Back

The line descends from left to right.

Front

What is the equation of a line with a slope of 4/5 and a y-intercept of 4?

Back

The equation is y = 4/5x + 4.

Front

How do you find the y-intercept from the equation y = -1/3x + 2?

Back

The y-intercept is the constant term, which is 2.

Front

What does it mean if two lines are parallel in terms of their slopes?

Back

Parallel lines have the same slope.

Front

What is the significance of the x-intercept in a linear equation?

Back

The x-intercept is the point where the line crosses the x-axis.
