Look for your job’s symbol now, so you know when it takes place!
STATION 1: DETERMINING SLOPE AND Y-INTERCEPT GIVEN AN EQUATION
In the next few examples we will have to determine the slope and y-intercepts of the equations given to us.
Let’s be careful though, because for these equations, we will have to re-write them in y = mx + b form first!
As a team! Determine the slope and y-intercept of the equations below:
a) −3𝑥 – 2𝑦 = −2 b) 5𝑥 – 2𝑦 = −2
Now work backwards:
c) Write the equation of a line whose slope is −2
3 and whose 𝑦 intercept is 3
Special Types of Linear Graphs
Horizontal Lines Horizontal lines only travel through the y-axis, no x-intercept here! Equation: y = -1 Slope = 0
Vertical Lines Here, because the line doesn’t travel through the y-axis, we need an x-intercept. Equation: x = -2 Slope: undefined
Slope: ___________ y-int: ___________ Slope: ___________ y-int: ___________
STATION #2: WRITING THE EQUATION OF A LINE GIVEN A GRAPH IN SLOPE-INTERCEPT FORM
As a team! Write the equations of the line graphed below!
Steps as we Go! Guided Example: Determine the equation for the following graphed line
Before we start, we know for any linear equation, we need a slope, and a y-intercept! We will solve for slope 1st
Part I. Determining the slope
1. Pick 2 clean points 2. Select the left most point. Count how many units
vertically it takes so it’s on the same level as the 2nd point. Then count how many units horizontally it takes to get to the 2nd point
3. Plug in: 𝑚 =𝑟𝑖𝑠𝑒
𝑟𝑢𝑛=
𝑐ℎ𝑎𝑛𝑔𝑒 𝑖𝑛 𝑦
𝑐ℎ𝑎𝑛𝑔𝑒 𝑖𝑛 𝑥
Part II. Writing the equation: 1. Make sure you have the slope (m) 2. Find the y-intercept (where does the line cross the y-
axis?) (b) 3. Plug into y = mx + b!
STATION #3: GRAPHING LINEAR EQUATIONS
Steps as you go! Guided example: Graph 𝑦 − 3 = −2𝑥
1. Get into y = mx+ b form!
2. Identify your slope and y-intercept
3. Begin with b –plot the y-intercept
4. Move with respect to slope
5. Plot at least points using slope pattern until the end of page.
6. Construct with arrows and label
Now you Try!
Graph: 𝑦 − 4 = 3
2𝑥 − 1
STATION #4: RECOGNIZING LINEAR EQUATIONS AND LINEAR RELATIONSHIPS
If an equation is a linear equation, the variable 𝒙
Exception! If variable X has a power of one but the variable y has a power of zero, it will be a linear relation, but not a
function of x. Example 𝑥1 = 𝑦0 + 7 simplifies to 𝑥 = 7.
As a team! Are the following linear equations? If they are, re-write in y=mx+b form if possible. If NOT, explain how you know.
1. 𝑦 = 2𝑥 − 3
2. .
3. 4𝑥 + 5𝑦 = 20
4. y = 3x2 + 12x + 1
NOTATION:
If the diagram of equation is a line the symbol is ⟷ and we will see ARROWS in both ends.
o Example: 𝐴𝐵 ⃡ (this is a line that travels through a point A and a point B)
If the diagram of equation is a line the symbol is − and we will see ENDPOINTS in both ends.
o Example:𝐴𝐵̅̅ ̅̅ (this is a line segment that starts at point A and ends at point B)
Has a power power of zero ( which converts the x
into 1) AND the variable y has a power of 1.
Example: 𝑦 = 𝑥0 + 7 simplifies to 𝑦 = 8
Has a power power of one AND the variable y has a
power of 1. Example: 𝑦 = 𝑥1 + 7 simplifies to
𝑦 = 𝑥 + 7
Mixed Practice!

a) To determine if lines or line segments are parallel, perpendicular or neither what would you look for? What formula would be necessary to use? Write the formula below.
b) To determine if line segments have the same length which formula would you use?
c) To determine if a given line is a perpendicular bisector to another line, what information would you need? BE SPECIFIC!
2) Algebraically determine if the line -x + y = 1 is the perpendicular bisector of AB, where A is (5,7), and B
is (6,6).
3) Write the equation of the perpendicular bisector of GH, given that G(2,-1) and H(10, -3).
a) Find the slope of GH.
b) What is the slope of a line perpendicular to GH? How did you find this answer?
c) Find the midpoint of GH.
d) Use the midpoint from (c) and the slope from (b) to write the equation of the perpendicular
bisector.
4) Write the equation of the perpendicular bisector of AB, given that A(5,-8) and B(-2,13).
