1 Using Graphs of Equations x & y intercepts real world situation, write equations

2 x & y intercepts Y-intercept (0,-2) X-intercept (2,0) The x-intercept is the x- coordinate of the point where the line crosses the x axis y-intercept x-intercept

3 Finding Intercepts y-intercept (0,3) x-intercept (1,0)

4 Finding Intercepts from an equation To find the y-intercept, Let x =0 then solve the remaining equation for y. Solution (0,b) 5x + 4y = 20 5(0)+4y = 20 0 + 4y = 20 4y = 20 y = 5 Solution ( 0,5)

5 Finding Intercepts from an equation To find the x-intercept, Let y =0 then solve the remaining equation for x. 5x + 4y = 20 5x+4(0) = 20 5x + 0 = 20 5x = 20 x = 4 Solution ( 4,0)

6 Finding Intercepts from an equation To find the y-intercept, Let x =0 then solve the remaining equation for y. Solution (0,b) 4x- y = 8 4(0) - y = 8 0-y = 8 -y = 8 y = -8 Solution ( 0, -8)

7 Finding Intercepts from an equation To find the x-intercept, Let y =0 then solve the remaining equation for x. 4x – y = 8 4x – 0 = 8 4x = 8 x = 2 Solution ( 2,0)

8 Finding Intercepts from an equation x-intercept 3x – 5y = 30 3x – 5(0) = 30 3x – 0 = 30 3x = 30 x = 10 Solution (10,0) y-intercept 3x – 5y = 30 3(0) – 5y = 30 0 – 5y = 30 -5y = 30 y = -6 Solution (0,-6)

9 Graphing a line using x & y intercepts 2x + 3y = 6 y- intercept (0,2) x-intercept (3,0) Draw the line

10 Real World Situations A restaurant pays you $20 for a four hour shift. You average $7.00 per table in tips. Write and graph an equation representing your total earnings per table in a shift x - # of tables y- total earnings total earnings = earn at tables + nightly wage y = 7x + 20

11 Real World Situations Sasha burns 15 calories per minute rowing vigorously, but only 3 calories per minute rowing leisurely. If Sasha burned a total of 300 calories, how many minutes of each intensity did she row? x - # of min rowing vigorously y - # of min rowing leisurely 15x + 3y = 300

12 Real World Situations You have $4.00 in coins of dimes and quarters. How many of each type of coin do you have? x – # of quarters y – # of dimes amt in quarters+ amt in dimes = total amt.25x +.10y = 4.00
