An equation whose graph is a line is a Linear Equation An equation whose graph is a line is a Linear Equation. Examples of Linear Equations:
The y-intercept is the y-coordinate of the point where a line crosses the y-axis. Y-intercept: SLOPE: (rate of change)
Write an equation of the line with Step 1: Write the slope-intercept form equation Step 2: Substitute the given slope and y-intercept from the problem
Write an equation of the line with
Step 1: Find two points on the graph Step 1: Find two points on the graph. Step 2: Find the slope of those points Step 3: Determine the y-intercept Step 4: Write the equation of the line
Write an equation of the line:
Write the equation of the line:
Graphing a line given the equation Step 1: Graph the y-intercept. Step 2: Using the slope, graph a second point on the line. Step 3: Draw a line through the two points
The base pay of a water-delivery person is $210 per week The base pay of a water-delivery person is $210 per week. He also earns 20% commission on any sale he makes. The equation t=210 + 0.2s relates total earnings t to sales s. What is the slope of the equation? What is the y-intercept?
