Linear Equations

What letter represents the slope in the equation y = mx + b ?

• x
• y
• m
• b

What is the correct equation in 
Slope-Intercept Form?
(y = mx +b)

• y = x + 2
• y = 2x - 1
• y = -x + 2
• y = -2x - 1

Given the equation y = 2x+3, what is the slope?

• 2
• x
• 3
• IDK

Which of these represents point-slope form of a linear equation?

• y - y₁ = m(x - x₁)
• Ax + By = C
• y = mx + b

Select all of the following equations in point-slope form.

• y - 2 = 5(x - 2)

• 3x + 2y = 12

• y + 2 = 1/4(x + 4)

• y = 4x + 6

• 2y = 5x - 7

What is the equation in Point-Slope form

of the line that goes through

the point (6,1) and has a slope of -3?

• y - 6 = -3(x - 1)

• y + 6 = -3(x + 1)

• y - 1 = -3(x - 6)

• y + 1 = -3(x + 3)

Convert the equation of the line

y + 5 = -3(x - 6)

into slope intercept form.

• y = -3x - 23

• y = -3x - 13

• y = -3x - 11

• y = -3x + 13

The line with the equation

y + 1 = -3(x - 5),

contains the point (5, -1)

and has a slope of _______.

• -1

• 1

• -3

• 5

For the equation
y - 3 = 2(x + 4),
the line has a slope of 2 and contains what point?

• (-4, 3)
• (3, -4)
• (-3, -4)
• (-4, -3)

What is the strategy for graphing point-slope form?

• Graph the y-intercept, then use the slope to move.

• Divide to find the x- and y-intercepts.

• Graph the given point, then move according to slope.
