FLASHCARD QUESTION
Front
Back
The slope of a line is a measure of its steepness, usually represented as 'm' in the equation of a line (y = mx + b). It is calculated as the rise over run, or the change in y divided by the change in x.
2.
FLASHCARD QUESTION
Front
How do you find the slope from two points?
Back
To find the slope (m) from two points (x1, y1) and (x2, y2), use the formula: m = (y2 - y1) / (x2 - x1).

FLASHCARD QUESTION
Front
What does a positive slope indicate?
Back
A positive slope indicates that as the x-value increases, the y-value also increases, meaning the line rises from left to right.
4.
FLASHCARD QUESTION
Front
What does a negative slope indicate?
Back
A negative slope indicates that as the x-value increases, the y-value decreases, meaning the line falls from left to right.
5.
FLASHCARD QUESTION
Front
What is a zero slope?
Back
A zero slope indicates a horizontal line where the y-value remains constant as the x-value changes.
6.
FLASHCARD QUESTION
Front
What is an undefined slope?
Back
An undefined slope occurs with a vertical line where the x-value remains constant, leading to a division by zero in the slope formula.
7.
FLASHCARD QUESTION
Front
How do you write the equation of a line in slope-intercept form?
Back
The equation of a line in slope-intercept form is written as y = mx + b, where m is the slope and b is the y-intercept.
