Algebra 1 5-3 Independent Practice: Slope-Intercept Form

What is an equation of the line with slope 6 and y-intercept -4?

What equation in slope-intercept form represents the line that passes through the points (-3, 4) and (2, -1)?

What is the graph of y = 5x + 2?

Be sure to include relevant graph detail: label axes, indicate units on both axes, and use arrows to represent end behavior, as appropriate.

Vocabulary: Is y = 5 a linear equation? Explain.

Reasoning: Is it always, sometimes, or never true that an equation in slope-intercept form represents a direct variation?

Reasoning: Explain your response above.

Writing: Describe two different methods you can use to graph the equation y = 2x + 4. Which method do you prefer? Explain.
