FLASHCARD QUESTION
Front
What is the slope-intercept form of a linear equation?
Back
The slope-intercept form is given by the equation y = mx + b, where m is the slope and b is the y-intercept.
2.
FLASHCARD QUESTION
Front
How do you find the slope of a line given two points (x1, y1) and (x2, y2)?
Back
The slope (m) is calculated using the formula m = (y2 - y1) / (x2 - x1).

FLASHCARD QUESTION
Front
What does the slope of a line represent?
Back
The slope represents the rate of change of y with respect to x; it indicates how steep the line is.

FLASHCARD QUESTION
Front
What is a y-intercept?
Back
The y-intercept is the point where the line crosses the y-axis, represented by the value of y when x = 0.

FLASHCARD QUESTION
Front
Write the equation of the line with slope 5/2 through the point (8, −2).
Back
y = 5/2x − 22.
