Slope and Slope intercept

Front

What is the slope-intercept form of the equation of a line?

Back

The slope-intercept form is given by the equation y = mx + b, where m is the slope and b is the y-intercept.

Front

What does 'm' stand for in the slope formula?

Back

'm' represents the slope of the line.

Front

Back

The y-intercept is 4.

Front

What does a positive slope indicate about a line?

Back

A positive slope indicates that the line rises as it moves from left to right.

Front

What does a negative slope indicate about a line?

Back

A negative slope indicates that the line falls as it moves from left to right.

Front

What is the slope of a horizontal line?

Back

The slope of a horizontal line is 0.

Front

What is the slope of a vertical line?

Back

The slope of a vertical line is undefined.

Front

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

Back

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

Front

If a line has a slope of 3, what does this mean?

Back

This means that for every 1 unit increase in x, y increases by 3 units.

Front

What is the equation of a line with a slope of -1 that passes through the point (2, 3)?

Back

The equation is y = -x + 5.
