Front

What is the y-intercept of the line y = 4x - 10?

Back

-10

Front

What is the y-intercept in the equation y= -2x + 5?

Back

5

Front

What type of slope does the following graph have? (Negative slope)

Back

Negative

Front

Solve for y: 5x + y = -10

Back

y = -5x - 10

Front

What type of slope does the graph have? (Zero slope)

Back

Zero

Front

Define slope in the context of a linear equation.

Back

Slope is the measure of the steepness of a line, calculated as the change in y over the change in x.

Front

What is the formula for calculating the slope between two points (x1, y1) and (x2, y2)?

Back

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

Front

What does a positive slope indicate about a line?

Back

A positive slope indicates that as x increases, y also increases.

Front

What does a negative slope indicate about a line?

Back

A negative slope indicates that as x increases, y decreases.

Front

What is the x-intercept of a line?

Back

The x-intercept is the point where the line crosses the x-axis (y=0).
