#23 - 24 • Writing Equations from a graph
o Locate the y – intercept
o Find the slope by counting rise over run
o Rewrite your equation in y = mx + b form.
o Horizontal Lines: y = b, where b is the y -intercept
o Vertical Lines: x = a, where a is the x - intercept
#1 - 6
• Writing Equations when given slope and y-intercept
o Start with the slope intercept form of ___________________________.
y = mx + b
• Coinciding Lines
o Same slope and same y – intercept (same exact line)
