Finding Equations in Point-Slope Form from Graphs

What is the first step in finding an equation in point-slope form from a graph?

• Calculate the area under the curve

• Identify a point and the slope

• Identify the y-intercept

• Find the x-intercept

Which point is chosen from the graph in this example?

• (2, -3)

• (-3, 4)

• (-4, 3)

• (4, -3)

How is the slope determined from the graph?

• Run over rise

• Rise over run

• Sum of x and y coordinates

• Difference of x and y coordinates

What is the slope of the line in this example?

• 3/7

• -3/7

• -7/3

• 7/3

What is the simplified form of the equation in point-slope form?

• y + 4 = -7/3(x - 3)

• y - 4 = -7/3(x + 3)

• y + 4 = -7/3(x + 3)

• y - 4 = -7/3(x - 3)
