Front

Given a slope of 2/3 and a y-intercept of -3, what is the equation of the line?

Back

y = 2/3x - 3

Front

In the equation y=5x-6, what is 'b'?

Back

-6

Front

What is the y-intercept of the line represented by the equation y = 2x - 4?

Back

(0, -4)

What is the slope of the line represented by the equation y = -3x + 1?

Back

-3

Front

If a line has a slope of 1/2, what does this indicate about the line's steepness?

Back

The line rises 1 unit for every 2 units it runs, indicating a gentle slope.

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 slope from two points (x1, y1) and (x2, y2)?

Back

Slope (m) = (y2 - y1) / (x2 - x1).

Front

What does a positive slope indicate about a line?

Back

The line rises as it moves from left to right.
