Slope Intercept Form

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 'b' represent in the equation y = mx + b?

Back

The y-intercept, which is the point where the line crosses the y-axis.

Front

If the slope (m) is negative, what does that indicate about the line?

Back

The line decreases as it moves from left to right.

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 slope of the line represented by the equation y = 2x + 5?

Back

The slope is 2.

Front

Write the equation of a line with a slope of -1 and a y-intercept of 3.

Back

y = -1x + 3 or y = -x + 3.

Front

What is the slope of the line represented by the equation y = -3/4x + 2?

Back

The slope is -3/4.

Front

If a line has a slope of 0, what does that mean?

Back

The line is horizontal.

Front

What is the y-intercept of the line represented by the equation y = 5x - 7?

Back

The y-intercept is -7.

Front

How can you determine if two lines are parallel using their equations?

Back

Two lines are parallel if they have the same slope (m).
