FLASHCARD QUESTION
Front
What is the slope of a linear function?
Back
The slope of a linear function is the rate of change of y with respect to x, represented by 'm' in the equation y = mx + b.

FLASHCARD QUESTION
Front
What is the y-intercept of a linear function?
Back
The y-intercept is the point where the graph of the function crosses the y-axis, represented by 'b' in the equation y = mx + b.
