Slopes of Lines with Graphs

• They have different starting points (y-intercepts).

• They have different slopes.

• They have the same slopes and will create intersecting lines.

• They have the same slopes and will create parallel lines.

•   $y=\frac{2}{3}x$  is a translation of  $y=\frac{2}{3}x+4$  4 units down.

What is the rate of change (slope) of the line shown?

• 40/1

• 50/1

• 10/1

• 1/10

How can you find the rate of change from a non-proportional graph?

• I can pick a point, then divide y/x.

• I can look at the point where the line crosses the vertical axis.

• I can take any two points on the graph and divide the amount of vertical change (y-y) by the amount of horizontal change (x-x).

• I can use any one point to fin the rate of change.

• I can count rise over run.
