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


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.


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

they are the same line.


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
