A17 - Slope Intercept Form Make up

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 (m) 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 (b) is the point where the line crosses the y-axis, indicating the value of y when x = 0.

Front

How do you find the slope between two points (x1, y1) and (x2, y2)?

Back

The slope is calculated using the formula m = (y2 - y1) / (x2 - x1).

Front

What is the equation of a horizontal line?

Back

The equation of a horizontal line is y = b, where b is a constant.

Front

What is the equation of a vertical line?

Back

The equation of a vertical line is x = a, where a is a constant.

Front

If a line has a slope of 0, what type of line is it?

Back

A line with a slope of 0 is a horizontal line.

Front

If a line has an undefined slope, what type of line is it?

Back

A line with an undefined slope is a vertical line.

Front

What is the slope of the line represented by the equation y = 3x + 1?

Back

The slope of the line is 3.

Front

What is the y-intercept of the line represented by the equation y = -2x + 5?

Back

The y-intercept of the line is 5.
