Linear Tables to Equations

Front

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

Back

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

Front

What does 'm' represent in the equation y = mx + b?

Back

In the equation y = mx + b, 'm' represents the slope of the line, indicating how steep the line is.

Front

What does 'b' represent in the equation y = mx + b?

Back

In the equation y = mx + b, 'b' represents the y-intercept, which is the point where the line crosses the y-axis.

Front

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

Back

The slope (m) between two points is calculated using the formula m = (y2 - y1) / (x2 - x1).

Front

What is the y-intercept of the equation y = 4x + 5?

Back

The y-intercept of the equation y = 4x + 5 is 5.

Front

Convert the equation y = 3x - 2 into slope-intercept form.

Back

The equation y = 3x - 2 is already in slope-intercept form.

Front

What is the slope of the line represented by the equation y = -2x + 3?

Back

The slope of the line represented by the equation y = -2x + 3 is -2.

Front

Write a linear equation in slope-intercept form with a slope of 1 and a y-intercept of 4.

Back

The linear equation is y = 1x + 4 or y = x + 4.

Front

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

Back

A line with a slope of 0 is horizontal, meaning it does not rise or fall as it moves along the x-axis.

Front

What is the equation of a vertical line that passes through the point (3, 2)?

Back

The equation of a vertical line that passes through the point (3, 2) is x = 3.
