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

What does 'm' represent in the equation y = mx + b?

Back

In the equation y = mx + b, 'm' represents the slope of the line, which indicates the steepness and direction of the line.

Front

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

Back

In the equation y = mx + b, 'b' represents the y-intercept, which is the point where the line crosses the y-axis.

Front

How do you find the y-intercept from the equation y = 5x + 8?

Back

The y-intercept is found by setting x = 0. For y = 5(0) + 8, the y-intercept is (0, 8).

Front

If a line has a slope of -1 and passes through the point (0, 8), what is the equation of the line?

Back

The equation of the line is y = -x + 8.

Front

What is the slope of the line represented by the equation y = -2/3x + 3?

Back

The slope of the line is -2/3.

Front

How do you determine the slope from two points, (0, 8) and (2, 6)?

Back

The slope (m) is calculated as (y2 - y1) / (x2 - x1). For (0, 8) and (2, 6), m = (6 - 8) / (2 - 0) = -1.

Front

What is the equation of a line with a slope of 1/3 and a y-intercept of -2?

Back

The equation of the line is y = 1/3x - 2.

Front

If m = 3 and b = 6, what is the slope-intercept equation?

Back

The slope-intercept equation is y = 3x + 6.

Front

What is the general process to convert a standard form equation to slope-intercept form?

Back

To convert from standard form Ax + By = C to slope-intercept form, solve for y to get y = mx + b.
