✅Slope intercept form

y = -x - 3

SLOPE is

• 3

• 1

• -1

• -3

Answer explanation

Slope is always a coefficient of x.

y = -4x - 3

SLOPE is

• 3

• $\frac{4}{1}$

• $\frac{4}{-1}$
  

• -3

Answer explanation

Slope is always a coefficient of x.

When graphing, one always marks FIRST

• the y-intercept on the y-axis

• the slope on the y-axis

• the y-intercept on the x-axis

• the slope on the x-axis

When graphing, one always starts counting the slope

• from the origin (0,0)

• on the y-axis

• from the y-intercept

• on the x-axis

 $y=-4x-\frac{1}{2}$  

SLOPE is

•  $\frac{1}{2}$  
  

• $\frac{4}{1}$

• $\frac{4}{-1}$
  

•  $-\frac{1}{2}$  
  

Answer explanation

Slope is always a coefficient of x.

If your slope is -5, then it is the same as

• $\frac{5}{1}$

• $\frac{-5}{-1}$

• $\frac{5}{-1}$

• $\frac{1}{-5}$

In the equation y = -5x + 7, which value represents the slope of the equation?

What is the slope of this line?

• 2/3 Up two, right 3

• -2/3 Down 2, right 3

• -3/2 Down three, right 2

What is the equation of a line with a slope of 4 and a y-intercept of 2?

• y = -4x + 2

• y = -2x + 4

• y = 4x + 2

• y = 2x + 4

What does "m" represent in y=mx+b?
