Writing Equations in Slope-Intercept Form

Front

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

Back

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

Front

How do you identify the slope from the equation y = 3x + 9?

Back

The slope (m) is 3.

Front

What does the y-intercept represent in the equation y = mx + b?

Back

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

Front

Convert the equation y = 2x + 5 to standard form.

Back

The standard form is 2x - y = -5.

Front

What is the slope of the line represented by the equation y = -4x + 1?

Back

The slope (m) is -4.

Front

If a line has a slope of 0, what does that indicate about the line?

Back

A slope of 0 indicates a horizontal line.

Front

What is the equation of a line with a slope of 1 that passes through the point (0, 2)?

Back

The equation is y = x + 2.

Front

How do you convert the equation 3x + 2y = 6 to slope-intercept form?

Back

Rearranging gives y = -3/2x + 3.

Front

What is the slope of the line represented by the equation y = 5x - 4?

Back

The slope (m) is 5.

Front

What does it mean if two lines are parallel in terms of their slopes?

Back

Parallel lines have the same slope.
