Point Slope Form Practice

Front

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

Back

Front

What does the slope of a vertical line indicate?

Back

The slope of a vertical line is undefined because the change in x is zero, leading to division by zero in the slope formula.

What does the slope of a horizontal line indicate?

Back

The slope of a horizontal line is zero because there is no change in y as x changes.

If a line has a slope of -2 and passes through the point (1, 4), what is its equation in point-slope form?

Back

Front

What is the significance of the point (x_1, y_1) in the point-slope form?

Back

The point (x_1, y_1) is a specific point on the line used to define the line's equation in point-slope form.

Front

How do you find the slope between two points (x_1, y_1) and (x_2, y_2)?

Front

What does the term 'slope' 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.
