5

Front

What is the y-intercept for the given graph if it crosses the y-axis at -1?

Back

-1

Front

Write the equation for the line in slope-intercept form if the slope is 4 and the y-intercept is 3.

Back

y = 4x + 3

Front

What is the slope in the equation y = 2x + 3?

2

Front

Which of these represents slope-intercept form of a linear equation? (y - y1 = m(x - x1), Ax + By = C, y = mx + b)

Back

y = mx + b

Front

Define slope in the context of a linear equation.

Back

Slope is the measure of the steepness of a line, represented as 'm' in the equation y = mx + b.

Front

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

Back

The 'b' represents the y-intercept, the point where the line crosses the y-axis.

Front

How do you convert the point-slope form (y - y1 = m(x - x1)) to slope-intercept form?

Back

Rearrange to solve for y: y = mx - mx1 + y1.

Front

What is the slope of the line represented by the equation y = -3x + 2?

Back

-3

Front

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

Back

The line is horizontal.
