Slope Intercept Form Review Worksheet

Write the equation of the line with slope = 5 and that goes through point (3, -5)

• y = 5x - 5

• y = 5x - 20

• y = 5x + 20

• y = 5x + 15

Rewrite this equation in slope intercept form (y = mx. + b):

9x + 3y = -6

• 3y = 9x -6

• y = -3x -2

• y = -9x - 6

• y = -3x +2

Rewrite this equation in slope intercept form (y = mx. + b):

x + y = -15

• x = -y -15

• y = -x + 15

• y = -x - 15

• y = x - 15

Rewrite this equation in slope intercept form (y = mx. + b):

6x - 2y = 10

• 2y = 6x - 10

• y = -3x - 5

• y = 3x - 5

• y = -3x + 5

Which equations have the same slopes?

(Hint: rewrite in slope-intercept form first)

• -3x + y = -4

• -6x + 3y = 6

• -2x + y = -4

• -10x + 12y = 9

Write the equation of the graph in slope-intercept form.

• slope

• y-intercept

• linear

• x-intercept

Answer explanation

In this form, called slope-intercept form, the coefficient of x, which is the value in front of x, is called the slope.

Slope is the rate of change for a linear function. It's the rise over run, or the change of y-values over the change of x-values.

• 2

• 3

• 5

• 2x 

Answer explanation

Slope is x's coefficient, which means we take only the value in front of x to be the slope.
