Graphing a linear equation by rewriting from standard form to slope intercept form

The video tutorial covers the process of graphing linear equations using slope intercept form. It begins with a review of the slope intercept form and its components, followed by a demonstration of graphing a line using this form. The tutorial then explains how to convert an equation from standard form to slope intercept form, emphasizing the steps involved in solving literal equations. Finally, the video illustrates how to graph the converted equation, highlighting the importance of identifying the y-intercept and slope to plot the line accurately.

What is the first step in graphing a line using the slope-intercept form?

• Plot the X-intercept

• Identify the slope

• Create a table of values

• Plot the Y-intercept

Which of the following is the standard form of a linear equation?

• AX + BY = C

• X = AY + B

• Y = B + MX

• Y = MX + B

When converting from standard form to slope-intercept form, what operation is typically performed first?

• Addition or subtraction

• Multiplication

• Exponentiation

• Division

In the equation Y = -3/5X + 3, what does the -3/5 represent?

• The Y-intercept

• The constant term

• The X-intercept

• The slope

How do you determine the next point on a line after plotting the Y-intercept?

• By calculating the midpoint

• By drawing a horizontal line

• By finding the X-intercept

• By using the slope as a ratio of rise over run
