Practice Flashcard - Slope Intercept to Standard form - 3.3.21

Front

What is the first step to converting the equation y = -x + 4 into standard form?

Back

Add x to both sides.

Front

After subtracting 2x from each side, the resulting equation is 4y = -2x + 8. What is the final step to solve for y?

Back

Divide each term by 4.

Front

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

Back

2.

Front

What type of slope is represented by the equation y = -3x + 1?

Back

Negative.

Front

Convert the equation y = -8x - 12 to standard form.

Back

8x + y = -12.

Front

What is the standard form of the equation 3y = 6x + 9?

Back

6x - 3y = -9.

Front

How do you find the slope from the equation y = mx + b?

Back

The slope is the coefficient m.

Front

What does a positive slope indicate about a line?

Back

The line rises from left to right.

Front

What does a negative slope indicate about a line?

Back

The line falls from left to right.

Front

What is the slope of the line represented by the equation y = -1/2x + 4?

Back

-1/2.
