Identify Slope and y-intercept (from equation)

Front

What is the y-intercept in the equation y = mx + b?

Back

The y-intercept is the value of y when x = 0, represented by b in the equation.

Front

How do you identify the slope from the equation y = mx + b?

Back

The slope is represented by m in the equation, indicating the rate of change of y with respect to x.

Front

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

Back
