Solving 5 4 Linear Equations Word Problems

This video tutorial covers various forms of linear equations, including slope-intercept, standard, point-slope, and two-point forms. It demonstrates how to apply these forms to solve word problems, such as calculating costs and comparing different scenarios. The tutorial provides practical examples, like determining the number of rides at a fair or the cost of renting a kayak, to illustrate the concepts. By the end, viewers will understand how to choose and use the appropriate form of a linear equation for different types of problems.

What is the slope-intercept form of a linear equation?

• y - y1 = m(x - x1)

• x = my + b
