The slope of a line is a measure of its steepness, typically represented as 'm' in the slope-intercept form of a linear equation. It is calculated as the change in y divided by the change in x (rise/run).
2.
FLASHCARD QUESTION
Front
How do you find the slope from a table of values?
Back
To find the slope from a table, select two points (x1, y1) and (x2, y2) from the table and use the formula: m = (y2 - y1) / (x2 - x1).

What is the y-intercept of a line?
Back
The y-intercept is the point where the line crosses the y-axis, represented as 'b' in the slope-intercept form of a linear equation (y = mx + b).

FLASHCARD QUESTION
Front
What is the slope-intercept form of a linear equation?
Back
The slope-intercept form is y = mx + b, where 'm' is the slope and 'b' is the y-intercept.

FLASHCARD QUESTION
Front
What is Point-Slope form of a linear equation?
Back
Point-Slope form is given by the equation y - y1 = m(x - x1), where (x1, y1) is a point on the line and 'm' is the slope.
