Today’s Lesson: What: Graphing linear equations Why: To use “slope-intercept form” in order to graph linear equations. What: Graphing linear equations Why: To use “slope-intercept form” in order to graph linear equations. y = mx + b

A linear equation is an equation with 2 different variables (like y = 4x + 1 )– with no exponents. Also, they graph as a ___________________ line! Remember... Well, when a linear equation is written in a specific order/ format, we call it slope- intercept form... In other words, when the equation is written like this: y = 5x + 2 The slope-intercept formula is: y= mx + b Y is isolated on one side, and the x term comes before the constant! straight

What is y = mx + b ?? Consider the diagram... slope steep y axis

Let’s apply it... Positive slopes will always graph as UPHILL lines! y = mx + b

2) y = -4x + 6 m = b = Negative slopes will always graph as DOWNHILL lines! -4 6 When the slope is negative, we FALL instead of RISE... y = mx + b

-3 y = mx + b

We can easily use “y = mx + b” to come up with the equation as well! How? Study the graph of the line. Identify the ____________ (where it crosses the y axis). This is the “b.” Then, determine the slope. Is it an uphill or a downhill? This tells you whether the slope is positive or ___________. Count the “rise” grid moves versus the “run” grid moves. This is the “m.” What if we have the graph Only?? Downhill means negative slope! 4) m = b = So, the equation is... ________________ y-intercept negative -2

m = b = So, the equation is... ________________ Uphill means positive slope! 5) 2 y = 2x + 2 y = mx + b

m = b = So, the equation is...________________ Downhill means negative slope! 6) -3 y = mx + b
