Back

To find the point, choose a value for x and solve for y. For example, if x = 1, then y = -4, giving the point (1, -4).

Front

What does the slope represent in a linear equation?

Back

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

Front

What is the significance of the point (x_1, y_1) in the point-slope form?

Back

The point (x_1, y_1) is a specific point on the line, used to define the line's position.
