Front

What is the general form of the slope-intercept equation?

Back

y = mx + b

Front

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

Back

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

Front

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

Back

The line decreases from left to right.

Front

What is the y-intercept of the line represented by the equation y = -2x + 5?

Back

(0, 5)

Front

If a line has a slope of 0, what can be said about the line?

Back

It is a horizontal line.
