How do you identify the slope from the equation $$y = -\frac{1}{2}x + 4$$ ?

The slope is $$-\frac{1}{2}$$ .

What does the y-intercept represent in the equation $$y = 3x - 2$$ ?

The y-intercept is the value of $$y$$ when $$x = 0$$ , which is $$-2$$ .

How do you convert the equation $$y = -\frac{1}{3}x - 2$$ to standard form?

To convert to standard form, rearrange to $$\frac{1}{3}x + y = -2$$ or multiply through by 3 to get $$x + 3y = -6$$ .

If the slope of a line is -3, what does this indicate about the line's direction?

A slope of -3 indicates that the line is decreasing; as $$x$$ increases, $$y$$ decreases.

What is the equation of a line with a slope of 1 and passing through the point (0, 4)?

The equation is $$y = x + 4$$ .

How do you find the slope between two points (2, 3) and (4, 7)?

The slope is calculated as $$m = \frac{y_2 - y_1}{x_2 - x_1} = \frac{7 - 3}{4 - 2} = 2$$ .

What is the slope of a vertical line?

The slope of a vertical line is undefined.

What is the slope of a horizontal line?

The slope of a horizontal line is 0.

How do you write the equation of a line given a slope of -rac{1}{2} and a y-intercept of 4?

The equation is $$y = -\frac{1}{2}x + 4$$ .

What does it mean if two lines are parallel in terms of their slopes?

Two lines are parallel if they have the same slope.
