Front

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

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

How do you convert an equation to slope-intercept form?

Back

To convert to slope-intercept form, isolate y on one side of the equation.

Front

What does the slope of a line represent?

Back

The slope represents the rate of change of y with respect to x, indicating how steep the line is.

Front

What is the slope of a horizontal line?

Back

The slope of a horizontal line is zero.

Front

What is the slope of a vertical line?

Back

The slope of a vertical line is undefined.

Front

How do you find 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

What is the y-intercept of a line?

Back

The y-intercept is the point where the line crosses the y-axis, represented by the value of b in the slope-intercept form.

Front

Convert the equation 5x - 3y = -9 to slope-intercept form.

Back

y = (5/3)x + 3.

Front

What is the slope of the line represented by the equation y = -4x + 12?

Back

The slope is -4.

Front

What is the y-intercept of the line represented by the equation y = -1/2x + 5?

Back

The y-intercept is 5.
