Back

m=76, b=0

Front

Define slope in the context of linear functions.

Back

Slope (m) is the ratio of the change in y to the change in x between two points on a line.

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.
