How do you convert the equation x + 5y = 10 to slope-intercept form?

Back

To convert to slope-intercept form (y = mx + b), isolate y: 5y = -x + 10, then y = -\frac{1}{5}x + 2.

What is the axis of symmetry for a quadratic function?

Back

The axis of symmetry for a quadratic function in the form f(x) = ax^2 + bx + c is given by the formula x = -\frac{b}{2a}.

Front

How do you find the x-intercepts of a quadratic equation?

Back

To find the x-intercepts, set y = 0 and solve the equation for x.

What is the slope of a line given in the form y = mx + b?

Back

The slope (m) represents the rate of change of y with respect to x; it indicates how steep the line is.

What is the standard form of a linear equation?

Back

The standard form of a linear equation is Ax + By = C, where A, B, and C are integers, and A should be non-negative.

Front

How do you simplify the expression 8 + 5 ∙ 4 + (7 - 3)?

Back

First, calculate inside the parentheses: 7 - 3 = 4. Then, perform multiplication: 5 ∙ 4 = 20. Finally, add: 8 + 20 + 4 = 32.
