• A surveys ask high school freshman whether they would be willing to pay $5 for their yearbooks. Out of the 225 freshman surveyed, 198 said “yes”. What percent of the freshman said “yes”?
88%

We have already seen that linear equations have two variables and when we plot all the (x,y) pairs that make the equation true we get a line.
In this section, instead of making a table, evaluating y for each x, plotting the points and making a line, we will use The Slope-Intercept Form of the equation to graph the line.
y 2x 1
y x 4
y 32
x 2
These equations are all in Slope-Intercept Form:
Notice that these equations are all solved for y.
Just by looking at an equation in this form, we can draw the line (no tables).
•The constant is the y-intercept.
•The coefficient is the slope.
y 2x 1
y x 4
y 3
2x 2
Constant = 1, y-intercept = 1.
Coefficient = 2, slope = 2.
Constant = -4, y-intercept = -4.
Coefficient = -1, slope = -1.
Constant = -2, y-intercept = -2.
Coefficient = 3/2, slope = 3/2.
The formula for Slope-Intercept Form is:
y mx b;• ‘b’ is the y-intercept.
• ‘m’ is the slope.
On the next three slides we will graph the three equations:
y 2x 1, y x 4, y 3
2x 2
using their y-intercepts and slopes.
y 2x 1
1) Plot the y-intercept as a point on the y-axis. The constant, b = 1, so the y-intercept = 1.
2) Plot more points by counting the slope up the numerator (down if negative) and right the denominator. The coefficient, m = 2, so the slope = 2/1.

2) Plot more points by counting the slope up the numerator (down if negative) and right the denominator. The coefficient, m = -1, so the slope = -1/1.

The coefficient, m = -2 is the slope.

Important!!!
This is one of the big concepts in Algebra 1. You need to thoroughly
understand this!
Slope – Intercept Form
y = mx + b
m represents the slope
b represents the y-intercept
Writing Equations
When asked to write an equation, you need to know two things – slope (m) and y-intercept (b).
There are three types of problems you will face.
Writing Equations – Type #1Write an equation in slope-intercept form of the
line that has a slope of 2 and a y-intercept of 6.
To write an equation, you need two things:
slope (m) =
y – intercept (b) =
We have both!! Plug them into slope-intercept form
y = mx + b
y = 2x + 6

Write the equation of a line that has a y-intercept of -3 and a slope of -4.
1. y = -3x – 4
2. y = -4x – 3
3. y = -3x + 4
4. y = -4x + 3
Writing Equations – Type #2Write an equation of the line that has a slope of 3
and goes through the point (2,1).
To write an equation, you need two things:
slope (m) =
y – intercept (b) =
We have to find the y-intercept!! Plug in the slope and ordered pair into
y = mx + b
1 = 3(2) + b

Writing Equations – Type #21 = 3(2) + b
Solve the equation for b
1 = 6 + b
-6 -6
-5 = b
To write an equation, you need two things:
slope (m) =
y – intercept (b) =
y = 3x - 5

Writing Equations – Type #3Write an equation of the line that goes through the points (-2,
1) and (4, 2). To write an equation, you need two things:
slope (m) =y – intercept (b) =
We need both!! First, we have to find the slope. Plug the points into the slope formula.

It’s now a Type #2 problem. Pick one of the ordered pairs to plug into the equation. Which one looks easiest to use?
I’m using (4, 2) because both numbers are positive.2 = (4) + b
