Exploring Adding and Subtracting Rational Expressions

What is the main goal when graphing systems of equations?

• To calculate the x-intercept of each line

• To find the point of intersection

• To determine the y-intercept of each line

• To find the slope of each line

What form should an equation be in to easily graph it?

• Standard form

• Quadratic form

• Slope-intercept form

• Point-slope form

If the slope of a line is -4/3, what does this indicate about the movement on the graph?

• Up 4 units, right 3 units

• Down 4 units, right 3 units

• Up 3 units, right 4 units

• Down 3 units, right 4 units

What is the y-intercept of the line 3y = -4x - 3 after converting it to slope-intercept form?
