linear changing forms

Question 1

How do we change from point slope form to slope intercept form?

Answer 1

We distribute the slope and then get y alone

Question 2

Slope intercept form

Answer 2

y=mx+b

Question 3

Standard form of a linear

Answer 3

ax+by=c

Question 4

How do we get an equation into standard form?

Answer 4

Start with y=mx+b and then move the x term to the same side as the y

Question 5

What are the special things to remember about standard form?

Answer 5

a has to be positive and there can’t be a fraction or decimal anywhere

In y=mx+b, what does m stand for

Answer 6

slope

Question 7

In y=mx+b, what does b stand for

Answer 7
