Equations of Lines

Front

Convert the equation 4x - y = 3 to slope-intercept form.

Back

y = 4x - 3

Front

Write an equation in point-slope form for a line with a slope of 3 and passing through the point (4, -2).

Back

y = 3x - 14

Front

Write the equation in point-slope form for the line that contains the points (3, -5) and (5, -1).

Back

y + 5 = 2(x - 3)

Front

Which of these represents point-slope form of a linear equation?

Back

y - y₁ = m(x - x₁)

Front

Which is correctly written in standard form of y=-6/7x+12?

Back

6x + 7y = 84

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.

Front

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

Back

m = (y₂ - y₁) / (x₂ - x₁)

Front

What does the 'm' represent in the equation y = mx + b?

Back

The slope of the line.

Front

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

Back

The y-intercept of the line.

Front

Convert the point-slope form y - y₁ = m(x - x₁) to slope-intercept form.

Back

y = mx - mx₁ + y₁
