Linear Equations Flashcardizz

Front

What is the simple definition of slope?

Back

Slope is defined as rise/run.

Front

What is the slope-intercept form of the equation of a line?

Back

The slope-intercept form is y = mx + b.

Front

Identify the slope of the equation y = 5x + 3.

Back

The slope is 5.

Front

Find the equation of the line in slope-intercept form given the slope is 1/3 and y-intercept is -3.

Back

The equation is y = 1/3x - 3.

Front

Determine the slope and y-intercept from the equation y = 3/2x + 3.

Back

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

Front

What does 'm' represent in the slope-intercept form y = mx + b?

Back

'm' represents the slope of the line.

Front

What does 'b' represent in the slope-intercept form y = mx + b?

Back

'b' represents the y-intercept of the line.

Front

If a line has a slope of 0, what does that indicate about the line?

Back

A slope of 0 indicates that the line is horizontal.

Front

If a line has an undefined slope, what does that indicate about the line?

Back

An undefined slope indicates that the line is vertical.

Front

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

Back

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