Question

(4 points)
slope
y-intercept
x-intercept
equation of a line
:: y = slope + x-intercept
:: when y = 0
rise/run = change in y/change in x
the initial amount
:: when x and y both = 0
:: distance of a line segment between 2 points
:: y = mx + b

Answer 1

slope: rise/run = change in y/change in x
y-intercept: the initial amount
x-intercept: when y = 0
equation of a line: y = mx + b
