What is a linear relationship?

Back

A linear relationship is a relationship between two variables that can be represented by a straight line on a graph. It can be described by the equation y = mx + b, where m is the slope and b is the y-intercept.

What does the slope of a line represent?

Back

The slope of a line represents the rate of change of the dependent variable (y) with respect to the independent variable (x). It indicates how much y changes for a unit change in x.

What is the y-intercept in a linear equation?

Back

The y-intercept is the value of y when x is 0. It is the point where the line crosses the y-axis.

How do you calculate the slope from two points (x1, y1) and (x2, y2)?

Back

The slope (m) can be calculated using the formula m = (y2 - y1) / (x2 - x1).

If Taylor swims 210 meters in 3 minutes, what is the slope of the line when minutes are on the x-axis and meters on the y-axis?

Back

The slope is 70 meters/minute.

What does a slope of 0 indicate about a line?

Back

A slope of 0 indicates that the line is horizontal, meaning there is no change in the y-value as x changes.
