FLASHCARD QUESTION

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.

2.

FLASHCARD QUESTION

Front

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

Back

The 'm' represents the slope of the line, indicating the steepness and direction.

3.

FLASHCARD QUESTION

Front

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

Back

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

4.

FLASHCARD QUESTION

Front

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

Back

The slope (m) is calculated as m = (y2 - y1) / (x2 - x1).

5.

FLASHCARD QUESTION

Front

If a line has a slope of 2/3, what does this indicate about the line's steepness?

Back

A slope of 2/3 means that for every 3 units moved horizontally, the line rises 2 units vertically.

FLASHCARD QUESTION

Front

What is the y-intercept of the equation y = 4x + 5?

Back

The y-intercept is (0, 5).

7.

FLASHCARD QUESTION

Front

How do you convert the equation y = -2x + 3 into slope-intercept form?

Back

The equation is already in slope-intercept form: y = mx + b, where m = -2 and b = 3.
