Essential Question: What is the Slope-Intercept Form of a Linear Equation? Watch the video to answer this question. Find the slope and y-intercept of each equation. In the equation y = 3x + 5, the slope is 3 and the y-intercept is (0, 5 ) In the equation y = -2x + 7, the slope is -2 and the y-intercept is (0, 7 ). In the equation y = 3 - 8, the slope is 3 and the y-intercept is (0, -8 ). Skill #1: Identify the slope and y-intercept from an equation in Slope-Intercept Form. Take notes while you watch the video! Identifying the slope and y-intercept from an equation. Type the word "slope" in the blank that indicates the slope. Type "y-intercept" in the blank that indicates the y-intercept. Enter your answer in lower-case with no "". slope y-intercept slope y-intercept slope y-intercept Skill #2: Identify the Slope and the Y-Intercept From a Graph Take notes while you watch the video! Identifying the slope and y-intercept from a graph.Look at the graph below. Find the slope and the y-intercept, then write the equation for the line in slope-intercept form. Write the equation without any spaces. The slope of the line is 4.The y-intercept of the line is the point (0, -4).The equation of the line is y=4x-4 The slope of the line is 1 y-intercept of the line is the point (0, 7).The equation of the line is y=1 The slope of the line is 1 y-intercept of the line is the point (0, 3).The equation of the line is y=1 The slope of the line is -1.The y-intercept of the line is the point (0, -6).The equation of the line is y=-1x-6. Skill #3: Identify the Slope and the Y-Intercept From a Table Take notes while you watch the video! Identifying the slope and y-intercept from a table. Show the rate of change (or slope) in the table.Highlight the y-intercept in the table.Write the equation in slope-intercept form. Skill #4: Given the Slope and the Y-Intercept, Write the Equation Take notes while you watch the video! Given the slope, m and the y-intercept, b, write the equation for each line. Match the slope, m and the y-intercept, b with the correct equation. slope = 1 y-intercept = -2 y = 1 - 2 slope = 3; y-intercept = 4 y = 3x + 4 slope = 5; y-intercept = 2 y = 5x + 2 slope = 4; y-intercept = 3 y = 4x + 3 slope = -5; y-intercept = -2 y= -5x - 2 slope = 1 y-intercept = -3 y = 1 - 3 Essential Question: What is the Slope-Intercept Form of a Linear Equation? Use what you have learned from the videos to answer the question.
