This video tutorial covers solving word problems using linear equations. It begins with an introduction to the lesson's goals, focusing on writing equations for word problems. The first example involves calculating the cost of pizzas delivered by GrubHub, using the number of pizzas as the independent variable and the total cost as the dependent variable. The tutorial explains how to determine the slope and y-intercept, and how to interpret them in the context of the problem. The second example models test scores based on study time, again using linear equations to find relationships between variables. The video emphasizes understanding the meaning of slope and y-intercept in real-world scenarios.

How do you calculate the slope between two points (x1, y1) and (x2, y2)?

• (y2 - y1) / (x2 - x1)

• (x1 - x2) / (y1 - y2)

• (x2 - x1) / (y2 - y1)

• (y1 - y2) / (x1 - x2)
