Front

What is the General form of a Linear Equation?

Back

Ax + By = C, where A, B, and C are constants.

Front

What is the Standard form of a Linear Equation?

Back

Ax + By = C, where A and B are not both zero.

Front

Which equation is in General form?

Back

-7x + 2y = 9.

Front

Which equation is NOT in Standard form?

Back

Front

What is the formula for 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 'm' represent in the equation y = mx + b?

Back

The slope of the line.

Front

What does 'b' represent in the equation y = mx + b?

Back

The y-intercept of the line.

Front

How do you convert from Standard form to slope-intercept form?

Back

Solve for y to isolate it on one side of the equation.
