Front

What does the slope of a line represent?

Back

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

Front

How can you determine if a point lies on a line given by an equation?

Back

Substitute the x-coordinate of the point into the equation and check if the resulting y-value matches the y-coordinate of the point.

What is the relationship between parallel lines in terms of slope?

Back

Parallel lines have the same slope but different y-intercepts.
