Front

Define the term 'slope' in the context of linear equations.

Back

The slope is the measure of the steepness of a line, calculated as the rise over run.

Front

What is the standard form of a linear equation?

Back

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

Front

How do you find the x-intercept of a linear equation?

Back

Set y = 0 and solve for x.

Front

What does the slope-intercept form of a linear equation look like?

Back

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