FLASHCARD QUESTION
Front
What does the slope of a linear function represent?
Back
The slope represents the rate of change of the function; it indicates how much the y-value changes for a unit change in the x-value.

FLASHCARD QUESTION
Front
What is the y-intercept in a linear function?
Back
The y-intercept is the point where the line crosses the y-axis, represented by the value of b in the equation y = mx + b.

FLASHCARD QUESTION
Front
How do you find the slope between two points?
Back
The slope (m) can be calculated using the formula m = (y2 - y1) / (x2 - x1), where (x1, y1) and (x2, y2) are the coordinates of the two points.
