What is the slope in the equation y=2x + 3?

• 2
• 3
• 5
• Cannot be Determined 

What does 'b" represent in y=mx+b

• y-intercept
• macaroni
• nothing
• slope

Write the equation in point-slope form of the line that passes through the given point and has the given slope.
(4, -7); m = -1/4

• y + 7 = -1/4(x - 4)
• y - 4 = -1/4(x + 7)
• y + 7 = 4(x - 4)
• y - 7 = -1/4(x - 4)
