Slope, Equations, Tables, Graphs, Slope-Intercept Form

Front

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

Back

The slope-intercept form is y = mx + b, where m is the slope and b is the y-intercept.

Front

How do you find the slope from two points (x1, y1) and (x2, y2)?

Back

The slope (m) is calculated as m = (y2 - y1) / (x2 - x1).

Front

What does the slope of a line represent?

Back

The slope represents the rate of change of y with respect to x; it indicates how steep the line is.

Front

What is the y-intercept of a line?

Back

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

Front

Convert the equation 4x + y = -10 to slope-intercept form.

Back

y = -4x - 10.

Front

Identify the slope and y-intercept of the equation y = 2x + 5.

Back

Slope: 2, y-intercept: (0, 5).

Front

What is the slope of the line represented by the equation y = -3x + 4?

Back

The slope is -3.

Front

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

Back

A slope of 0 indicates a horizontal line.

Front

If a line has an undefined slope, what does that indicate about the line?

Back

An undefined slope indicates a vertical line.

Front

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

Back

The slope is the coefficient of x, which is m.
