5.4 Point-Slope Form: Linear Parent Function: is y = x or f(x) = x. Parent Graph: Simplest function of a family of functions with common characteristics. Linear Equation: is an equation that models a linear function. Y-intercept: The point where the graph crosses the y-axis.

GOAL:
3
Whenever we are given a graph we must be able to provide the equation of the function. Point-Slope Form: The linear equation of a nonvertical line with slope m and a point (x 1, y 1 ) is: y-y 1 = m(x - x 1 ) X value of given point. Y value of given point.
4
Slope = m Definition of Slope The variable we use for slope Point-Slope form.

USING TWO POINTS TO WRITE THE POINT-SLOPE FORM: Provide the point-slope equation of the line that passes through (-2, -3) and (1, 4)
20
In order to provide the point-slope equation of the line that passes through (-2, -3) and (1, 4) we must: 1. Find the slope 2. Use one of the given points (either one) Choosing: (1, 4) Choosing: (-2, -3)
21
YOU TRY IT: Provide the point-slope equation of the line that passes through (6, -2) and (-1, 3)
22
In order to provide the point-slope equation of the line that passes through (6, -2) and (-1, 3) we must: 1. Find the slope 2. Use one of the given points (either one) Choosing: (6, -2) Choosing: (-1, 3)
