What does the variable 'b' represent in the slope-intercept form?

Back

'b' represents the y-intercept, which is the point where the line crosses the y-axis.

Front

What does the variable 'm' represent in the slope-intercept form?

Back

'm' represents the slope of the line, indicating the rate of change of y with respect to x.

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, as it would require division by zero.
