Slope Intercept Form

Front

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

Back

The slope-intercept form is given by the equation y = mx + b, where m is the slope and b is the y-intercept.

Front

In the equation y = -2/3x + 2, what is the slope?

Back

The slope is -2/3.

Front

In the equation y = 2x + 2, what is the y-intercept?

Back

The y-intercept is 2.

Front

How do you identify the slope from the equation y = mx + b?

Back

The slope is the coefficient of x, represented by m.

Front

What does the y-intercept represent in a linear equation?

Back

The y-intercept represents the point where the line crosses the y-axis.

Front

Given a slope of 2/3 and a y-intercept of -3, what is the equation of the line?

Back

The equation of the line is y = 2/3x - 3.

Front

How do you graph a line given its slope and y-intercept?

Back

Start at the y-intercept on the y-axis, then use the slope to find another point on the line.

Front

What is the slope of the line represented by the equation y = -1/3x + 1?

Back

The slope is -1/3.

Front

What is the y-intercept of the equation y = -1/3x + 1?

Back

The y-intercept is 1.

Front

How can you convert the equation from standard form to slope-intercept form?

Back

To convert, solve for y to isolate it on one side of the equation.
