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

How do you find the y-intercept (b) from the slope-intercept form?

Back

The y-intercept is the value of y when x = 0, represented by the constant term b in the equation y = mx + b.

Front

What is the y-intercept of the equation y = -2/3x + 2?

Back

The y-intercept is (0, 2).

Front

What is the slope of the equation y = -2/3x + 2?

Back

The slope is -2/3.

Front

If a line has a slope of 0, what does that indicate about the line?

Back

A slope of 0 indicates a horizontal line.

Front

If a line has an undefined slope, what does that indicate about the line?

Back

An undefined slope indicates a vertical line.

Front

Write the slope-intercept form of a line with a slope of -3 and a y-intercept of 0.

Back

The equation is y = -3x.

Front

In the equation y = mx + b, what does 'b' represent?

Back

The 'b' represents the y-intercept of the line.

Front

What is the graphical representation of the equation y = 2x + 2?

Back

The graph is a straight line with a slope of 2 and a y-intercept at (0, 2).
