What does the y-intercept represent in a linear graph?

Back

The y-intercept is the value of y when x is 0, indicating the starting point of the relationship represented by the graph.

Front

What is the slope of a linear graph?

Back

The slope represents the rate of change of y with respect to x, indicating how much y increases or decreases for each unit increase in x.

How can you determine the slope from two points on a graph?

Back

The slope (m) can be calculated using the formula m = (y2 - y1) / (x2 - x1) where (x1, y1) and (x2, y2) are the coordinates of the two points.

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

Back

The x-intercept is the value of x when y is 0, indicating where the graph crosses the x-axis.

How can you identify the y-intercept on a graph?

Back

The y-intercept can be identified as the point where the line crosses the y-axis.
