Graph Slope Intercept and Point-Slope Form (shortened)

Front

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

Front

What does the slope of a line represent?

Back

The slope represents the rate of change of y with respect to x. It indicates how steep the line is.

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

Front

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

Front

How can you convert from point-slope form to slope-intercept form?

Front

What does a positive slope indicate about a line?

Back

A positive slope indicates that as x increases, y also increases, resulting in an upward slant from left to right.

Front

What does a negative slope indicate about a line?

Back

A negative slope indicates that as x increases, y decreases, resulting in a downward slant from left to right.

Front

What is the slope of a horizontal line?

Back

The slope of a horizontal line is 0, meaning there is no change in y as x changes.

Front

What is the slope of a vertical line?

Back

The slope of a vertical line is undefined because the change in x is 0, leading to division by zero.
