Front

Define slope in the context of a linear equation.

Back

The slope is the ratio of the rise (change in y) to the run (change in x) between two points on a line.

Front

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

Back

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

Front

How do you find the y-intercept from an equation?

Back

Set x to 0 and solve for y.

Front

What is the significance of the slope in a real-world context?

Back

The slope indicates the rate of change, such as speed or growth rate.
