| 1502385808 | What is the slope of a line | Slope = Rise/Run |  | 0 |
| 1502385809 | What is the slope-intercept form of the equation of a line? | An equation of the line that has slope m and y-intercept b is y=mx+b |  | 1 |
| 1502385810 | What is the equation of a vertical line? | An equation of the vertical line through (a,b) is x=a. The slope of a vertical line is undefined. |  | 2 |
| 1502385811 | What is the equation of a horizontal line? | An equation of the horizontal line through (a,b) is y=b. The slope of a horizontal line is 0 |  | 3 |
| 1502385812 | What are Parallel lines? | Two non-vertical lines are parallel if and only if they have the same slope |  | 4 |
| 1502385813 | How do we use slope as a rate of change? | When a line is used to model the relationship between two quantities, the slope of the line is the rate of change of one quantity with respect to the other. |  | 5 |
