Slope Intercept Form - 8th Grade Math

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

How do you identify the slope from the equation y = -x + 4?

Back

The slope (m) is -1.

Front

What is the y-intercept in the equation y = -x + 4?

Back

The y-intercept (b) is 4.

Front

What does a negative slope indicate about a line?

Back

A negative slope indicates that the line is decreasing from left to right.

Front

What is the y-intercept of the function y = -3x?

Back

The y-intercept is 0.

Front

How can you convert the equation 2x + y = 41 into slope-intercept form?

Back

Rearranging gives y = -2x + 41.

Front

What type of slope does a horizontal line have?

Back

A horizontal line has a slope of zero.

Front

What type of slope does a vertical line have?

Back

A vertical line has an undefined slope.

Front

What is the equation of a line with a slope of 2 and a y-intercept of -5?

Back

The equation is y = 2x - 5.

Front

If the slope of a line is positive, what does that indicate about the line's direction?

Back

A positive slope indicates that the line is increasing from left to right.
