Our topic is Equation of a Line and Graphing. The equations were based on y = mx + b format. M is the slope, and B is the y intercept. You have to use the coordinates to figure out how to graph the equation. For example y = 3x + b with the coordinates of (1, 2). You would replace x with 1 and b with 2 {2 = 3(1) + b}. Then you would multiply 3 x 1 and then subtract 3 on both sides. Then you divide by 3 on both sides. Finally you graph it.
Equation of a line

Write the slope of the line passing through the two points.
1. (7, 8), (0, 5) m=7/3
2. (-1, 7), (1, 5) m=0/2
3. (12, 1),(36, -42) m=24/-43

Write the y-intercept of the following equations.
y = -3x – 14 y-intercept is -14
y= -x +8 y-intercept is 8


Equation of a line and graphing

Graph the following lines
1. Y=3x+6

Tell if the slope of each equation is positive, negative, zero, or undefined
2. Y=-6x+3
3. Y=7x-4
4. Y=-3x-14
5. Y=-x+8
6. Y=10x-5
7. Y=-5x=7
8. Y=-2/3x=9
9. Y=-1x +5
10. Y=2x+3

In conclusion to this project we would say that this was not the easiest project we were ever assigned. We had to make up equations for the class to solve. Also we had to make up problems of our own and write the slope of the line passing through two points. We had to graph an equation on a graph as an example.
