What is the slope?
Equation
Proportional vs Non Proportional
100

This is the m in the equation y=mx+b

What is slope?

100

This type of slope goes UP from left to right?

What is Positive?

100

The slope in this equation y = -3x - 2

-3

100

This is the slope-intercept equation when slope = 3 and the y-intercept = 2

y = 3x + 2

100

Proportional or non proportional? EXPLAIN!

Proportional b/c straight line through origin.

200

This is the meaning of b in y=mx+b?

What is the y-intercept?

200

This type of slope is vertical.

What is undefined?

200

Identify the slope: y = -5/2 x - 3/4

-5/2

200

The slope-intercept equation:

slope = 1/4

y-intercept = -6

y = 1/4 x - 6

200

Proportional or Not proportional? EXPLAIN.

y= 2x + 20

non proportional because there is a y-intercept value that is not 0

300

This is the meaning of x in y=mx+b?

What is the independent variable?

300

This type of slope travels downward from left to right.

What is negative?

300

The cost for Test Prep Center A is $20 times the number of hours that you attend.

What is the slope?

$20

300

What is the equation of the line?

y= 1/2x + 3

300

Proportional or not proportional? EXPLAIN.


The cost for Test Prep Center A is $20 times the number of hours that you attend.

Proportional

because at 0 hours you pay $0 and there's a constant rate.

400

This is the meaning of y in y=mx+b?

What is the dependent variable?

400


What is zero slope?

400

The cost for Test Prep Center B is $25 an hour, but you have a $100 coupon that you can use to reduce the cost.

What is the slope?

$25

400

The slope of the graph containing the points (5, 7) and (3, 6)

1/2

400

Proportional or not proportional? EXPLAIN.


The cost for Test Prep Center B is $25 an hour, but you have a $100 coupon that you can use to reduce the cost.

Not proportional

b/c even though there is a constant rate of $25/hr, the coupon means you don't start at $0 at 0 hours.

500

This is the equation of the line shown.

 

y=-3x-2

500

The slope dude always goes ____ to _____.

Left to Right

500
