Main idea/Inference/Judgment

Equation of line can be written as y = mx + b. where m is the slope and b is y-intercept.


Given m and b, one can write linear equation
For example: m=2, b=5
Y=2x+5
On the next page, Given m and b in first column.
Match to the respected equation in second column.
Cut the number given below on the next page and paste in front of equation.















Thunders ONLY:



Slope/y intercept Equation

m=5, b=-3

y=2/5x+2

m= -3, b= -4

y=6x+5

m= -4, b=0

12y= -9x + 28

m=0, b=4

y=7x+4

m=3/5 , b=6

y=5x-3

m= -3/4, b= 7/3

y= -4x

m= 7, b=4

y=9x+1

m=9, b=1

y=2x+11

m=2, b=11

y=4

m=6, b=5

y= -x-4

m=2/5, b=2

y= 3/5x+6


Jaguars ONLY:
There are two forms of linear equation:
Slope Intercept form: y=mx + b Point Slope form: y-y

Dynamites ONLY:
You may use your math book, pages 91-93 to solve these problems. You can use extra sheet of
paper for your work.
1. Write an equation of the line that passes through (1,-1) and is perpendicular to the line y= -
1/2x+6.


2. Write an equation of the line that passes through (6,-10) and is perpendicular to the line passes
through (4,-6) and (3,-4).


3. Write an equation of the line that passes through (2,-7) and is parallel to the line x=5.


4. Write an equation of line that passes through (4, 6) and is parallel to the line that passes
through (6,-6) and (10,-4).


5. Write an equation of the line that passes through (3,2) and (a) is perpendicular and (b) is parallel
to the line y= -3x+2.


6. Write an equation of line that passes through (2, 3) and has a slope of -1/2.


7. Redo problem 6 by substituting the given point and slope into y=m x+ b. Then solve for b to
write an equation of the line. Explain why this method does not change the equation of line.





8. Write an equation of line that passes through (-2,-1) and (3,4).




9. Redo problem 8 by substituting (3,4) for (x1,y1) into y-y1 = m (x-x1). Then rewrite the equation
in slope intercept form. Explain why using the point (3,4) does not change the equation of the
line.




10. Define constant of variation for two variables x and y that vary directly?
