Slope Intercept Form

Front

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

Back

The slope is the coefficient of x in the equation y = mx + b, where m represents the slope.

Front

What does the y-intercept represent in the slope-intercept form?

Back

The y-intercept is the value of y when x = 0, represented by b in the equation y = mx + b.

Front

What is the slope of the line represented by the equation y = 4x + 2?

Back

The slope is 4.

Front

How can you identify a linear graph?

Back

A linear graph is a straight line, indicating a constant rate of change.

Front

Which equation represents a line with a slope of 1 and a y-intercept of 5?

Back

The equation is y = x + 5.

Front

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

Back

The equation is y = -4x - 4.

Front

If Nicole charges a flat fee of $3 plus $5 per hour for babysitting, what is the equation for the total cost C after h hours?

Back

The equation is C = 5h + 3.

Front

What does a slope of 0 indicate about a line?

Back

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

Front

What does a negative slope indicate about the direction of a line?

Back

A negative slope indicates that as x increases, y decreases, resulting in a downward slant from left to right.

Front

How do you convert the equation y = 2x + 3 into slope-intercept form?

Back

The equation is already in slope-intercept form, where the slope is 2 and the y-intercept is 3.
