Slope-Intercept Form

Front

What is the slope in the slope-intercept form?

Back

The slope (m) represents the rate of change of y with respect to x in the equation of a line in slope-intercept form, which is written as y = mx + b.

Front

What does the y-intercept represent in a linear equation?

Back

The y-intercept (b) is the point where the line crosses the y-axis, indicating the value of y when x = 0.

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.

Back

The y-intercept is 5, which is the value of b in the equation.

The slope is -3.

Front

If a line has a positive slope, what does that indicate about the line's direction?

Back

A positive slope indicates that the line rises from left to right.

Front

If a line has a negative slope, what does that indicate about the line's direction?

Back

A negative slope indicates that the line falls from left to right.

What does it mean if a line has an undefined slope?

Back

An undefined slope means the line is vertical and does not cross the x-axis.
