Back

Ax + By = C, where A, B, and C are constants.

Front

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

Back

Slope (m) = (y2 - y1) / (x2 - x1)

Front

What is the x-intercept in the equation y = 2x - 6?

Back

Front

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

Back

y = mx + b, where m is the slope and b is the y-intercept.
