Ace your homework & exams now with Quizwiz!
standard form
Ax + By =c
what information does point-slope form give us
a point on the line (x,y) and the slope
how do you find the x-axis ofa line
plug in zero for x and solve for y. The answer will be a point (x,0)
slope
rise/run, m, steepness of a line
slope intercept form
y = mx + b
how do you find the y-intercept of a line
plug in zero for x and solve for y. the answer will be a point (0,y)
what does the m stand for in y=mx + b
slope of the line
what does the b stand for in y=mx + b
the y-intercept where it crosses the y-axis
x-intercept
where a line crosses the x-axis (x,0)
y-intercept
where a line crosses the y-axis (0,y)
