Slope Intercept Form

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.

Front

What does the slope (m) represent in a linear equation?

Back

The slope represents the rate of change of y with respect to x, indicating how steep the line is.

Front

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

Back

The y-intercept is the point where the line crosses the y-axis, represented by the value of y when x = 0.
