Using Desmos for Graphing Concepts

The video tutorial explains how to use the slope formula to find the rate of change and verify it using Desmos. It guides viewers through entering data into a Desmos table, typing the equation, and understanding the parameters like slope and y-intercept. The tutorial also covers verifying points on the graph and provides a recap of the steps involved.

What is the primary purpose of using Desmos in this tutorial?

• To draw complex shapes

• To verify the slope calculation

• To solve quadratic equations

• To create animations

How many points are needed to input into Desmos for slope calculation?

• Four

• Three

• Two

• One

What is the first step to create a table in Desmos?

• Select the graph option

• Click on add item and select table

• Type the equation directly

• Draw the graph manually

Which symbol is used in Desmos to represent the equation format?

• Asterisk (*)

• Caret (^)

• Squiggly line (~)

• Dollar sign ($)

What does the 'm' parameter represent in the Desmos equation?

• Slope or rate of change

• Y-intercept

• X-coordinate

• Graph color

What color is the line drawn by Desmos in the tutorial?

• Purple

• Green

• Blue

• Red

How can you verify if a specific point is on the graph in Desmos?

• By clicking the point and selecting label

• By drawing the point manually

• By checking the color of the graph

• By recalculating the slope

What is the y-intercept represented by in the Desmos equation?

• D

• C

• B

• A

What should you do if you need to double-check a point on the graph?

• Recalculate the entire graph

• Ignore the point

• Use a different software

• Click the point and select label

What is the final step in verifying the slope and y-intercept in Desmos?

• Restart the software

• Check the parameters box

• Re-enter the points

• Change the graph color
