1. F-IF.C.7a: Graphing a Line using Slope-Intercept, Part 1

2. Graphing Linear Functions Slope-Intercept Method.
Step 1: Write equation in:
Rate of change which is called Slope
Y-intercept
Remember slope is how we Move from point to point across the page.
The b of the y-intercept is where we begin.

3. Graphing Linear Functions Slope-Intercept Method.
Step 2: Identify the m & b
The coefficient (number in front of a variable) of x is the slope. Remember to always write rate of change is as a fraction.
△y Rise/Fall
△x Run
Remember the Y-intercept is a point and should be written as a ordered pair.
(0, y)

4. Graphing Linear Functions Slope-Intercept Method.
Step 3: Plot the y-intercept
Step 4: Plot more points according to the slope x y

5. Graphing Linear Functions Slope-Intercept Method.
Step 1: Write equation in:
Step 2: Identify the m & b
Slope
Y-intercept

6. Graphing Linear Functions Slope-Intercept Method.
Step 3: Plot the y-intercept x y
Step 4: Plot more points according to the slope 4 2 -4 -2 2 4 -2 -4
