1. The slope-intercept form of a linear equation is written as y = mx + b, where 'm' represents the and 'b' represents the .
2. A positive slope indicates that the line is from left to right, while a negative slope indicates the line is .
3. What is the slope (m) and y-intercept (b) of the equation y = -3x + 5?
m = 3, b = 5
m = -3, b = 5
m = 5, b = -3
m = -3, b = -5
4. For the equation 2x + y = 7, what are the slope and y-intercept?
m = 2, b = 7
m = -2, b = 7
m = 7, b = 2
m = -7, b = 2
5. Write the equation of a line with a slope of 2 and a y-intercept of -4.
6. Convert the equation 3x - 2y = 6 into slope-intercept form.
7. A horizontal line has a slope of 0.
True
False
8. The y-intercept is the point where the line crosses the x-axis.
True
False
9. Graph the equation y = (1/2)x - 3 on the coordinate plane below. Clearly label the y-intercept and use the slope to find at least two other points.
