Bellwork 1)If 2x + 5y = -20 and x = 0, what is y? 2)What is the slope of the line containing the points (2, 7) and (3, -7)? 3)Orphelia bought x apples. If each apple cost $0.59, write an equation for y, the total cost of x apples.
Lesson 3.5 Write and Graph Equations of Lines
Objective Find Equations of Lines
Standard Prep for 17.0 – Students prove theorems by using coordinate geometry, including the midpoint of a line segment, the distance formula, and various forms of equations of lines and circles
Slope-Intercept Form y = mx + b slope y-coordinate of y-intercept (0, b)
How to graph slope-intercept form Plot y-intercept (0, b) and apply slope
Example
Practice Write the equation
The real world?
Standard Form Ax + By = C coefficients constant variables
How to graph in Standard Form 1) Substitute x = 0 to find y-intercept (0, y) 2) Substitute y = 0 to find x-intercept (x, 0) 3) Connect dots with a line
Example Graph 3x + 4y = 12
