Graphing Lines in Point-Slope Form

Buzz graphed two lines in order to find the solution to a given system of equations.
What is the solution?

• (-1, 4)

• (1, -4)

• (-4, 1)

• (4, -1)

What are the steps for graphing a line?

• Plot y-intercept
  count slope ratio plot second point
  Draw the line.

• Make a table
  Plot slope
  Draw line

• Plot two points
  Check slope
  Draw line

• Draw line
  Hope it is right

• y= -1x-3
• y= -3x-1
• y=(-1/3)x-1
• y= -3x-3

What does "m" represent in y=mx+b?

• y-intercept

• slope

• x-intercept

• standard form

Write the equation in point-slope form of the line that passes through the given point and has the given slope.
(4, -7); m = -1/4

• y + 7 = -1/4(x - 4)

• y - 4 = -1/4(x + 7)

• y + 7 = 4(x - 4)

• y - 7 = -1/4(x - 4)

Write the equation of the line in Point-Slope form that goes through the point (10,5) and has a slope of -3

• y - 5 = -3(x - 10)

• y= -3x + 35

• y + 5= -3(x + 10)

• y= -3x - 35
