On a coordinate plane, what is the x-coordinate of the point where a line crosses the x-axis called?
Answer: The x-intercept
A line crosses the x-axis at its x-intercept, where y equals 0.
A line passes through (0, 4) and has a slope of 2. What is its equation in slope-intercept form?
Answer: y = 2x + 4
Slope-intercept form is y = mx + b, so m = 2 and b = 4 gives y = 2x + 4.
What is the slope of a horizontal line?
Answer: 0
A horizontal line has no vertical change, so its slope is 0.
Which quadrant contains the point (-3, -5)?
Answer: Quadrant III
Both coordinates are negative, which places the point in Quadrant III.
What is the slope of the line through points (1, 2) and (3, 8)?
Answer: 3
Slope equals (8 - 2)/(3 - 1) = 6/2 = 3.
A vertical line passes through x = 5. What is its slope?
Answer: Undefined
A vertical line has no horizontal change, making its slope undefined.
What are the coordinates of the origin on a coordinate plane?
Answer: (0, 0)
The origin is where the x-axis and y-axis intersect at (0, 0).
