1. Do Now 11/18/11 In your notebook, explain if the equations below are the same line. In your notebook, explain if the equations below are the same line. y – 4 = (x – 1) y – 1 = (x + 2) y = 1x + 3 YES YES y – 3 = 2(x – 1) y – 1 = 2(x + 2) y = 2x + 1 y = 2x + 5 NO NO

2. Objective write linear equations in point-slope form. write linear equations in point-slope form.

3. Slope Review The slope m of a line passing through two points and is the ratio of the rise change to the run. and is the ratio of the rise change to the run. y x run rise

4. Section 5.3 “Write Linear Equations in Point-Slope Form” POINT-SLOPE FORM- of a linear equation is written as: slope y-coordinate point 1 x-coordinate point 1 y x run rise

5. Write an equation in point-slope form of the line that passes through the point (-1, 4) and has a slope of -2. Write point-slope form. Substitute -2 for m, -1 for x, and 4 for y. Write point-slope form STEP 1 Substitute for the slope and the coordinates of the given point in STEP 2 Write in point-slope. Write an equation of the line in point-slope form. STEP 3

6. Write an equation in point- slope form of the line shown. m = y 2 – y 1 x2 – x1x2 – x1 = 3 – 1 -1 – 1 = 2 -2 Calculate the slope. STEP 1 Write point-slope form. Substitute for the slope and the coordinates of the given point in STEP 2 y x = -1 or

7. Graph the equation. Because the equation is in point-slope form, you know that the line has a slope of and passes through the point (3, –2). 2 3 Plot the point ( 3, – 2 ). Find a second point on the line using the slope. Draw a line through both points.

8. Graph the equation. Because the equation is in point-slope form, you know that the line has a slope of –1 and passes through the point (2, 1). Plot the point ( 2, 1 ). Find a second point on the line using the slope. Draw a line through both points.
