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

Back

The slope-intercept form is given by the equation y = mx + b, where m is the slope and b is the y-intercept.

How do you find the slope of a line given two points (x1, y1) and (x2, y2)?

Back

The slope (m) is calculated using the formula m = (y2 - y1) / (x2 - x1).

What does the slope of a line represent?

Back

The slope represents the rate of change of y with respect to x; it indicates how steep the line is.

What is the y-intercept of a line?

Back

The y-intercept is the point where the line crosses the y-axis, represented by the value of y when x = 0.

Front

If a line has a slope of 4, what does this mean?

Back

A slope of 4 means that for every 1 unit increase in x, y increases by 4 units.

What is the significance of a slope of 1/4?

Back

A slope of 1/4 indicates that for every 4 units increase in x, y increases by 1 unit.

How do you convert the equation y = 2x + 2 to standard form?

Back

To convert to standard form, rearrange to get -2x + y = 2.

Front

What does it mean if a line has no slope?

Back

If a line has no slope, it is vertical and cannot be expressed in slope-intercept form.
