FLASHCARD QUESTION

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.

2.

FLASHCARD QUESTION

Front

What does the slope (m) represent in the slope-intercept form?

Back

The slope (m) represents the rate of change of y with respect to x, indicating how steep the line is.

3.

FLASHCARD QUESTION

Front

What does the y-intercept (b) represent in the slope-intercept form?

Back

The y-intercept (b) is the point where the line crosses the y-axis, represented as (0, b).

4.

FLASHCARD QUESTION

Front

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

Back

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

5.

FLASHCARD QUESTION

Front

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

Back

A slope of -3 indicates that the line falls steeply from left to right.

6.

FLASHCARD QUESTION

Front

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

Back

The y-intercept is 3, which means the line crosses the y-axis at (0, 3).

7.

FLASHCARD QUESTION

Front

How can you convert the equation Ax + By = C to slope-intercept form?

Back

To convert, solve for y: y = (-A/B)x + (C/B).
