CHAPTER 66.2: Slope-Intercept Form

Page 2: 6.2: Slope-Intercept Form. Linear Equations  An equation whose graph is a line is a linear equation. Ex. y = 3x – 4  The y-intercept is the y-coordinate.

Linear Equations

An equation whose graph is a line is a linear equation.Ex. y = 3x – 4

The y-intercept is the y-coordinate of the point where the line crosses the y-axis.

The slope-intercept form of a linear equation is y=mx + b

Page 3: 6.2: Slope-Intercept Form. Linear Equations  An equation whose graph is a line is a linear equation. Ex. y = 3x – 4  The y-intercept is the y-coordinate.

Finding the Slope & Y-Intercept

Ex. y = 3x – 5

Ex. y = -2x + 1

Ex. y = 7/6x – ¾
