Front

What is the slope of a line?

Back

The slope of a line is a measure of its steepness, typically represented as 'm' in the equation of a line. It is calculated as the ratio of the rise (change in y) over the run (change in x).

What does it mean for a line to pass through a point?

Back

A line passes through a point if the coordinates of that point satisfy the equation of the line.

How can you verify if a point lies on a line given its equation?

Back

Substitute the x-coordinate of the point into the equation and check if the resulting y-value matches the y-coordinate of the point.

What is a y-intercept?

Back

The y-intercept is the point where the line crosses the y-axis, represented as (0, b) in the slope-intercept form.
