Front

What is 'b' in the linear equation y = 5x - 6?

Back

-6

Front

Which equation best represents the line on the graph? y = ?

Back

y = 1/2x

Front

What are the three consecutive integers whose sum is 234?

Back

77, 78, 79

Front

Write the equation for the line that contains the points (3,2) and (8,17).

Back

y = 3x - 7

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.

Front

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

Back

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

Front

What does the slope of a line represent?

Back

The rate of change of y with respect to x.

Front

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

Back

The value of y when x = 0.

Front

How do you convert the standard form of a linear equation Ax + By = C to slope-intercept form?

Back

Solve for y to get y = (-A/B)x + (C/B).

Front

What is the significance of the x-intercept in a linear equation?

Back

The value of x when y = 0.
