  1. What does the x-intercept of a line represent?

    Answer: Where the line crosses the x-axis

    The x-intercept is the point where the line intersects the x-axis, meaning y = 0.

  2. Solve: -3x = 12

    Answer: x = -4

    Divide both sides by -3 to get x = -4.

  3. Which equation is parallel to y = 5x + 2?

    Answer: y = 5x - 7

    Parallel lines have the same slope; y = 5x - 7 also has slope 5.

  4. Solve for x: x + 14 = 9

    Answer: x = -5

    Subtract 14 from both sides to get x = -5.

  5. A line passes through (0, 4) and (2, 0). What is its slope?

    Answer: -2

    Slope = (0 - 4)/(2 - 0) = -4/2 = -2.

  6. Solve: 10 - 3x = 1

    Answer: x = 3

    Subtract 10 from both sides to get -3x = -9, then divide by -3 to get x = 3.
