• Calculate the Gradient of a Straight Line from a Graph • Determine the Y-‐Intercept for a Given Graph The gradient of a linear graph is given by the coefficient of x. It refers to the slope of a
straight line and is commonly referred to as runrise .
The y-‐intercept of a linear graph is given by the constant (or the number on its own). The y-‐intercept is the point where the line cuts the y-‐axis. Determine the gradient and the y-‐intercept for the following equations.
Coefficient / Gradient Constant / Y-‐Intercept
y = 2x + 3
y = 3 – 3x
y = 7 – x
y = 3x + 4
y = – x+ 3
y = 4 – 3x
Formula
Example 1
A linear graph can be represented by the equation:
y = mx + b
where m is the gradient and b is the y-‐intercept
m = !"#$%&'()&*'+,")%+)-./%$%.+*.#%0.+$'()&*'+,")%+)-./%$%.+

Coefficient / Gradient Constant / Y-‐Intercept
y = –2x + 2
y = x – 3
y = –5x – 1
y = 1 – 2x
y = 2x – 1
y = !"! +"
y = !!!"
To determine the equation of a straight line, you need 2 key pieces of information.
1. Gradient – find two points and calculate the !"#$%&'()&*'+,")%+)-./%$%.+*.#%0.+$'()&*'+,")%+)-./%$%.+
.
2. Y-‐Intercept – find where the graph cut the y-‐axis.
Write the equation for the following straight lines.

To find the equation of a line from a graph or table of values:
1. Calculate the gradient. a. Choose 2 coordinates of the line and label them !!" #""$ and !!" #""$ . b. Use this formula:
2. Calculate the y-‐intercept. ~ In a graph, find the y value of the coordinate where the line cuts the y-‐axis. ~ In a table of values, find the y value of the coordinate when x = 0. If these 2 options are not available:
a. Form the equation y = mx + b and replace m with your answer to step 1. b. Replace x and y with any coordinate of the line. c. Solve for b.
