Slope Intercept Form Review

Front

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

Back

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

Front

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

Back

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

Front

If a line has a slope of 2/3, how would you write it in slope-intercept form?

Back

y = 2/3x + b, where b is the y-intercept.

Front

What is the y-intercept of the equation y = 2/3x - 3?

Back

The y-intercept is (0, -3).

Front

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

Back

Slope (m) = (y2 - y1) / (x2 - x1).

Front

What is the slope of the line represented by the equation y = -4x + 5?

Back

The slope is -4.

Front

How do you determine the y-intercept from the equation y = mx + b?

Back

The y-intercept is the value of b in the equation.

Front

What is the equation of a line with a slope of 1 and a y-intercept of (0, 2)?

Back

y = 1x + 2 or y = x + 2.

Front

If a line passes through the point (1, 2) and has a slope of 3, what is the equation of the line?

Back

y = 3x - 1.

Front

What does a positive slope indicate about a line?

Back

A positive slope indicates that the line rises as it moves from left to right.
