Graphing Linear Inequalities in Slope-Intercept Form

What is the formula for slope-intercept form?

• y = mx + b

• y = bx + m

• x = my + b

• x = by + m

What does 'b' represent in the slope-intercept form?

• The slope of the line

• The origin point

• The y-intercept

• The x-intercept

How do you plot the y-intercept on a graph?

• At the highest point of the graph

• Along the x-axis

• Along the y-axis

• At the origin

What is the slope if the change in y is 3 and the change in x is 2?

• 2/3

• 5

• 6

• 3/2

What does a positive slope indicate about the direction of a line?

• It moves from left to right

• It moves from right to left

• It is horizontal

• It is vertical

If the slope is negative, in which direction do you plot the line from a point?

• Up and to the right

• Down and to the left

• Up and to the left

• Down and to the right

What does the slope of 3/2 indicate about the line's direction?

• For every 2 units down, move 3 units left

• For every 3 units down, move 2 units left

• For every 2 units up, move 3 units right

• For every 3 units up, move 2 units right

What does a dashed line represent in a graph of an inequality?

• The line is vertical

• The inequality does not include the line

• The line is horizontal

• The inequality includes the line

How do you determine where to shade on the graph of an inequality?

• Do not shade at all

• Shade the entire graph

• Shade above the line if the inequality is true

• Shade below the line if the inequality is true

Which point is commonly used to test the shading area for an inequality?

• (1,1)

• (2,2)

• (0,0)

• (-1,-1)
