No. You are referring to a line on an XY graph, where X is the horizontal axis and Y is the vertical one. Equations are commonly graphed this way.

Slope refers to the angle at which the graphed line goes up or down. If it is steep, it is a higher slope. If it is closer to flat, it is a low slope.

Intercept refers to the point at which the line crosses the Y axis.

Is slope equation the same thing as slope intercept form?

Well slope intercept form is y=mx+b and slope equation can be the same formula, except it might be interpreted in a different way. although, i may be wrong.

Do parallel lines have the same slope and y intercept?

Parallel lines have the same slope, which makes them parallel. However, they cannot have the same y intercept, or else it would be the same line.


Is the point slope equation the same as the point slope intercept form?

no it is different


What are lines called that have the same slope and same y intercept?

they are the same line.


Is the x intercept the same as the slope?

No. In a linear equation, y = mx + b, the slope is m, and the x intercept is where mx + b = 0.


How do you find the slope intercept and standard forms of a line when the slope is undefined and you are given the coordinates 2 and 4?

When the slope is undefined, you know the line has to be vertical. Vertical lines only have an x in their equations. When you have the coordinates (2,4) with a vertical line, the equation for the slope intercept AND standard form would be the same thing: x=2


What are lines called that have the same slope and the same y intercept?
