(Use for #1-#4)

Find the equation of a line that passes through the point (3, 4) with a slope of 2.

1

First fill the numbers into the formula: y - _ = _ (x - ___). Type the full formula.

1

Now do just the first step, distribute the 2. y-4 = _x -_. Type the full equation.

1

Finally, add the 4 to both sides of the equation. What is the equation in Slope-Intercept form?

First fill the numbers into the formula: y - _ = _ (x - ___). Type the full formula:

1

Now do just the first step, distribute the 1/4. y-3 = _x -_. Type the full equation.

What is the y-intercept of the equation you wrote in #7?

(Use for #9-#10)
Find the equation of a line that passes through the point (7, 5) with an undefined slope.

What is the equation of the line?

1

What is the y-intercept of this line?

(hint: y-intercept means where the line crosses the y-axis, think about what a line looks like with an undefined slope.)
