Slope Intercept Form

Front

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

Back

y = mx + b, where m is the slope and b is the y-intercept.

Front

What does the letter 'm' represent in the slope-intercept form?

Back

The letter 'm' represents the slope of the line.

Front

What does the letter 'b' represent in the slope-intercept form?

Back

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

Front

If the slope (m) is 2 and the y-intercept (b) is 3, what is the equation of the line?

Back

y = 2x + 3

Front

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

Back

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

Front

What is the slope of a horizontal line?

Back

The slope of a horizontal line is 0.

Front

What is the slope of a vertical line?

Back

The slope of a vertical line is undefined.

Front

If a line has a slope of -1, what does this indicate about the line's direction?

Back

The line decreases from left to right.

Front

Write the slope-intercept form of a line with a slope of 4 and a y-intercept of -2.

Back

y = 4x - 2

Front

What is the slope of the line represented by the equation y = -5x + 1?

Back

The slope is -5.
