Slope-Intercept Form (y = mx + b) Equations

Front

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

Back

Front

What does the slope (m) represent in the slope-intercept form?

Back

The slope (m) represents the rate of change of y with respect to x, indicating how steep the line is.

Front

What does the y-intercept (b) represent in the slope-intercept form?

Back

The y-intercept (b) is the point where the line crosses the y-axis, indicating the value of y when x = 0.

Front

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

Back

A slope of 0 indicates that the line is horizontal.
