How do you find the slope (m) between two points (x1, y1) and (x2, y2)?

Back

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

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

Back

The y-intercept is the point where the line crosses the y-axis, represented by the value of b in the slope-intercept form y = mx + b.

What is the formula to find the equation of a line given two points?

Back

The equation can be found using the point-slope form: y - y1 = m(x - x1), where m is the slope.

Front

What is the significance of the slope in a linear equation?

Back

The slope indicates the steepness and direction of the line; a positive slope means the line rises, while a negative slope means it falls.
