What does the slope (m) represent in the Point-Slope Formula?

Back

The slope (m) represents the rate of change of y with respect to x. It indicates how steep the line is and the direction it goes (positive slope goes up, negative slope goes down).

What is the significance of the point (x₁, y₁) in the Point-Slope Formula?

Back

The point (x₁, y₁) is a specific point on the line where the equation is defined. It is used to anchor the line in the coordinate plane.

If the slope is 0, what does that indicate about the line?

Back

A slope of 0 indicates a horizontal line, meaning there is no change in y as x changes.
