Putting an equation in standard form and then graphing

What is the general form of the slope-intercept equation?

• y = ax + b

• y = cx + d

• y = mx + b

• y = bx + m

In the equation y = mx + b, what does 'b' represent?

• The slope

• The x-intercept

• The y-intercept

• The origin

After isolating y, what is the slope of the equation 7x + 6y = 42?

• -7/6

• 7/6

• -6/7

• 6/7

Where does the graph of the equation y = -7/6x + 7 cross the y-axis?

• At y = -7

• At y = 7

• At y = 0

• At y = 6

If the slope is negative, which direction does the line move on the graph?

• Down and to the right

• Down and to the left

• Up and to the right

• Up and to the left
