Section 8.3 (page 415)

Slope and Y­Intercept

Slope­Intercept Form: The equation y=mx+b• m is the slope• b is the y­intercept

Slope =   

Y­Intercept: the point where the line crosses the y­axis

Example 1 Quick Check 1If you know two points of a line, you can find the slope of the line:

slope =                          =

Example 2: Find the slope of the line through

E(7,5) and F(­2,0)

difference in y­coordinatesdifference in x­coordinates

Example 3: A ramp slopes from a warehouse door down to a street. The function y= ­1/5 x + 4 models the ramp, where x is the horizontal distance in feet from the bottom of the door and y is the height in feet above the street. Graph the equation.

Quick Check #2: Find the slope of the line through each pair of points.

a. (8, ­1) and (0, ­7)

b. (­4, 3) and (­10, 9)

Quick Check #3: Graph each equation using slope and y­intercept.

a. y = 2x ­ 3

b. y = ­x + 4
