Identifying Slope and Y-Intercept

Front

What is the slope of a linear equation?

Back

The slope of a linear equation represents the rate of change of the dependent variable (y) with respect to the independent variable (x). It is calculated as the rise over run.

Front

What is the y-intercept of a linear equation?

Back

The y-intercept of a linear equation is the point where the line crosses the y-axis. It is the value of y when x = 0.
