FLASHCARD QUESTION

Front

What is the Point-Slope Form of a linear equation?

Back

The Point-Slope Form is given by the equation y - y1 = m(x - x1), where (x1, y1) is a point on the line and m is the slope.

2.

FLASHCARD QUESTION

Front

How do you convert Point-Slope Form to Slope-Intercept Form?

Back

To convert from Point-Slope Form (y - y1 = m(x - x1)) to Slope-Intercept Form (y = mx + b), solve for y.

FLASHCARD QUESTION

Front

What does the slope (m) represent in a linear equation?

Back

The slope (m) represents the rate of change of y with respect to x, indicating how steep the line is.

4.

FLASHCARD QUESTION

Front

What is the slope of the line represented by the equation y + 5 = -3(x - 6)?

Back

The slope of the line is -3.

5.

FLASHCARD QUESTION

Front

If a line has a slope of 2, what does this indicate about the line's steepness?

Back

A slope of 2 indicates that for every 1 unit increase in x, y increases by 2 units, making the line steep.

FLASHCARD QUESTION

Front

What is the y-intercept in the equation y = -3x + 13?

Back

The y-intercept is 13, which is the point where the line crosses the y-axis.

7.

FLASHCARD QUESTION

Front

How do you find the coordinates of a point from the Point-Slope Form equation y - 4 = -1/3(x - 7)?

Back

The coordinates of the point are (7, 4), which is derived from the equation.
