Front

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

Back

-3

Front

Find the slope of the line that passes through: (10, 1) and (5, 2)

Back

-1/5

Front

The graph of a linear function is always straight?

Back

True

Front

What is the slope of the table?

Back

-5/3

Front

Which equation matches the graph? y = 5, y = -5, x = -5, x = 5

Back

x = -5

Front

Define slope in the context of a linear equation.

Back

Slope is the measure of the steepness of a line, calculated as the change in y over the change in x (rise/run).

Front

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

Back

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

Slope (m) = (y2 - y1) / (x2 - x1).

Front

What does a positive slope indicate about a line?

Back

A positive slope indicates that the line rises from left to right.

Front

What does a negative slope indicate about a line?

Back

A negative slope indicates that the line falls from left to right.
