FLASHCARD QUESTION

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.

2.

FLASHCARD QUESTION

Front

What does the slope of a line represent?

Back

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

3.

FLASHCARD QUESTION

Front

How do you identify a positive slope?

Back

A positive slope means that as x increases, y also increases, resulting in an upward slant from left to right.

4.

FLASHCARD QUESTION

Front

How do you identify a negative slope?

Back

A negative slope means that as x increases, y decreases, resulting in a downward slant from left to right.

5.

FLASHCARD QUESTION

Front

What is the point-slope form of a linear equation?

Back

The point-slope form is y - y1 = m(x - x1), where m is the slope and (x1, y1) is a point on the line.

6.

FLASHCARD QUESTION

Front

How do you convert from point-slope form to slope-intercept form?

Back

To convert, solve for y: y = mx + (y1 - mx1).

7.

FLASHCARD QUESTION

Front

What does it mean if a line has no slope?

Back

A line with no slope is horizontal, meaning it does not rise or fall as x changes.
