Writing Linear Equations in Slop-Intercept form only.

Front

What is the slope-intercept form of a linear equation?

Back

The slope-intercept form of a linear equation is y = mx + b, where m is the slope and b is the y-intercept.

Front

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

Back

In the slope-intercept form, 'm' represents the slope of the line, which indicates the steepness and direction of the line.

Front

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

Back

In the slope-intercept form, 'b' represents the y-intercept, which is the point where the line crosses the y-axis.

Front

How do you find the slope from two points (x1, y1) and (x2, y2)?

Back

The slope (m) can be calculated using the formula m = (y2 - y1) / (x2 - x1).

Front

If a line has a slope of -6, what is the equation in slope-intercept form?

Back

The equation in slope-intercept form is y = -6x + b, where b is the y-intercept.

Front

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

Back

The y-intercept of the equation y = 2x + 3 is 3.

Front

How do you determine the y-intercept from an equation in slope-intercept form?

Back

The y-intercept can be determined by identifying the value of 'b' in the equation y = mx + b.

Front

What is the slope of the line represented by the equation y = (-2/3)x + 8?

Back

The slope of the line represented by the equation y = (-2/3)x + 8 is -2/3.

Front

If the slope of a line is -5/3, what does this indicate about the line's direction?

Back

A slope of -5/3 indicates that the line is decreasing, meaning it goes down as it moves from left to right.

Front

What is the relationship between the slope and the angle of a line?

Back

The slope of a line is the tangent of the angle that the line makes with the positive x-axis.
