TRANSFORMING LINEAR FUNCTIONS
Describe how changing slope and y-intercept affect the graph of a linear function.
2
Remember: y = mx+b slope y-intercept
3
The steepness of a line!!! What does the slope of the line describe?
*The larger the slope the ___________________ steeper the line! What does the y – intercept of a line describe? Where the line crosses the y axis!! *What direction does the y axis go? _______________ Up & Down
