1 answer

Here is the correct matching of descriptions with vocabulary terms:

  1. slope: rise/run = change in y/change in x

  2. equation of a line: y = mx + b (where m is the slope and b is the y-intercept)

  3. y-intercept: the initial amount (the value of y when x = 0)

  4. x-intercept: when y = 0 (the value of x when y = 0)
