Do you see the numbers you found above, in the equation y = 3x + 1?

1

In that case, what do x and y in the equation represent?

2

Verify your theory about slopes and intercepts occuring in an equation by using a new equation of your choice.
1. Plot the equation.
2. Find the slope and intercept.
3. Show how they appear in the equation.
