Slope Intercept Form

Writing and Graphing Equations Using y=mx+b

​What is slope?

• Slope measures the steepness of a line.

  • The bigger the slope, the steeper the line.

  • The smaller the slope, the flatter it gets. ​

• Slope also tells us the direction of the line - if it goes up, down, or if it's horizontal or vertical.
