The video tutorial explains how to determine the slope, vertical intercept, and equation of a linear function from its graph. It begins by identifying two points on the graph to calculate the slope using the change in y over the change in x. The tutorial then verifies the slope using alternative points. It identifies the vertical intercept and uses this information to write the equation of the line in slope-intercept form, y = mx + b.

What are the three main tasks we need to accomplish with the given linear function graph?

• Find the slope, midpoint, and equation

• Find the slope, vertical intercept, and equation

• Find the slope, horizontal intercept, and equation

• Find the slope, axis of symmetry, and equation
