Master graphing linear equations in slope-intercept form! Practice identifying slope and y-intercept and plotting lines.

Watch this video as a review! 1. fill in the blanks to best complete each statement. Slope Intercept Form is y=mx+b , where the m represents the slopeof the line and the b represents the y-intercept.To graph using slope intercept form:1) Use the y-intercept to make the first point on the y-axis.2) Make additional points using the slope. 2. Match the provided slope and intercept to the correct equation. m = 2, b = 3 y = 2x + 3 b = 2, m = 3 y = 3x + 2 slope = 1, y-intercept = -4 y = x - 4 slope = 0, y-intercept = 4 y = 4 y-intercept = 1, slope = -4 y = -4 x + 1 3. Identify the slope[m] and y-intercept [b] with the correct equation in slope-intercept form. y=5x-4 ; m=5 b=-4 y=5x-4 ; m=-4 b=5 y=-5x+4 ; m=-5 b=4 y=-5x+4 ; m=4 b=-5 4. Identify the slope[m] and y-intercept [b] with the correct equation in slope-intercept form. y = 6x + 21; m=6 b=21 y = -6x - 7; m=-6 b=-7 -1 + 2x = -7; m=2 b=-7 y = -2 -7 m=-2 b=-7 y=-6x-21; m=-6 b=-21 5. Identify the slope [m], y-intercept [b], and x-intercept from each graph. Click on each blue dot and type in your answer.A few reminders when typing your answers...-> When finding the slope make sure to type only the SIMPLIFIED answer.-> Use the / for any fractions [no spaces] -4 3 4 2 -5 1 0 7 6. Graph the linear equation in Slope-Intercept Form. Write the equation in Slope Intercept Form, identify the slope [m] and y-intercept [b], graph the line, and identify the x-intercept. 7. Graph the linear equation in Slope-Intercept Form. y = -1 - 4identify the slope [m] and y-intercept [b], graph the line, and identify the x-intercept. 7. Graph the linear equation in Slope-Intercept Form. y = 2 + 1identify the slope [m] and y-intercept [b], graph the line, and identify the x-intercept.
