Point Slope Form Quiz

What is the general structure of an equation in point slope form?

• y - y1 = m(x - x1)

• y = mx + b

• ax + by = c

• y = a(x - h)^2 + k

When given a slope and a y-intercept, what point should be used in the point slope form equation?

• (1, b)

• (b, 1)

• (0, b)

• (b, 0)

How do you determine the slope from a graph?

• By measuring the distance between two points

• By counting the number of grid squares

• By calculating the change in y over the change in x

• By finding the y-intercept

If a graph shows a rise of 2 and a run of 3, what is the slope?

• 3/2

• 2/3

• 1/2

• 3/1

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

• 0

• -1

• 2

• 1
