What is the slope of a line?

Back

The slope of a line is a measure of its steepness, typically represented as 'm'. It is calculated as the change in y divided by the change in x (rise over run). A positive slope indicates the line rises from left to right, while a negative slope indicates it falls.

Front

What does it mean for a mapping to be a function?

Back

A mapping is a function if each input (x-value) corresponds to exactly one output (y-value). If an x-value is associated with multiple y-values, it is not a function.

Write the point-slope form of a line given a point (-2, -1) and slope -3.

Front

How do you find the value of a function at a specific point?

Back

To find the value of a function at a specific point, substitute the x-value into the function's equation and solve for y.

Front

What is the equation of a line with slope -3 and y-intercept 5?

Back

Front

What is the difference between positive and negative slope?

Back

A positive slope indicates that as x increases, y also increases, resulting in an upward line. A negative slope indicates that as x increases, y decreases, resulting in a downward line.
