Slope Intercept Form

Convert the equation 2x + y = 3 into slope-intercept form.

• y = 2x + 3

• y = -2x + 3

• y = 3x - 2

• y = -3x + 2

What is the slope of the line represented by the equation y = -2x + 3?

• 3

• -2

• 2

• -3

What is the y-intercept of the line represented by the equation y = -2x + 3?

• (0, -2)

• (3, 0)

• (0, 3)

• (-2, 0)

When graphing a linear equation, what does the y-intercept represent?

• The point where the line crosses the x-axis

• The steepness of the line

• The point where the line crosses the y-axis

• The horizontal distance from the origin

If the slope of a line is -2, how would you describe its movement on a graph from one point to the next?

• Up 2 units, right 1 unit

• Down 2 units, left 1 unit

• Up 1 unit, right 2 units

• Down 2 units, right 1 unit

Which of the following points is on the line y = -2x + 3?

• (0, 2)

• (1, 1)

• (2, 3)

• (3, 0)

Convert the equation 3x - 4y = 12 into slope-intercept form.

• y = (3/4)x - 3

• y = -(3/4)x + 3

• y = (4/3)x - 3

• y = -(4/3)x + 3

For the equation y = (3/4)x - 3, what is the slope and y-intercept?

• Slope = 3/4, y-intercept = (0, -3)

• Slope = -3/4, y-intercept = (0, 3)

• Slope = 3, y-intercept = (0, -4)

• Slope = -3, y-intercept = (0, 4)

To convert the equation 3x - 4y = 12 into slope-intercept form, what is the first step?

• Divide all terms by 4

• Add 4y to both sides

• Subtract 3x from both sides

• Multiply all terms by -1

After subtracting 3x from both sides of 3x - 4y = 12, what operation is performed next to isolate y?

• Add 4 to both sides

• Multiply by -4

• Divide by -4

• Subtract 12 from both sides
