WRITE AN EQUATION IN
SLOPE-INTERCEPT FORM
Write an equation in slope-intercept form
The slope-intercept equation is also referred to as
y = mx + b
linear equation, linearmodel or function
Write an equation in slope-intercept form
The slope, m, is also called the
m =y2 – y1______x2 – x1
coefficient
Write an equation in slope-intercept form The y-intercept, b, is also referred to as
the constant
y = mx + by = mx + b
Write an equation in slope-intercept form Example: The cost for 7 dance lessons
is $82. The cost for 11 lessons is $122.What is the cost per lesson?
The cost per lesson means slope which is what we need to find
Write an equation in slope-intercept form The cost for 7 dance lessons is $82.
The cost for 11 lessons is $122.
To find slope we need 2 ordered pairs
(7, 82), (11, 122)
Write an equation in slope-intercept form
Plug the points into the equation for slope
Reduce the top and bottom Simplify the fraction
m =y2 – y1______x2 – x1
(7, 82), (11, 122)
11 – 7 122 – 82

Write an equation in slope-intercept form
What’s the cost per lesson? The cost per lesson is $10
m = 10
Write an equation in slope-intercept form The cost for 7 dance lessons is $82.
The cost for 11 lessons is $122.
What is the flat fee?
The flat fee refers to the y-intercept which is what needs to be found
Write an equation in slope-intercept form
We know m, so plug it into the equation Plug in one of the points
Does it matter which point? Multiply 10(11) Subtract 100 from both sides
y = mx + by = 10x + b122 = 10(11) + b(11, 122)
122 = 110 + b-110 -100
12 = b
Write an equation in slope-intercept form
b is 12 so: The flat fee is $12
12 = b
Write an equation in slope-intercept form
Write a linear equation that relates the total cost, y, in terms of the lessons, x
Plug b back into the equation
y = 10x + by = 10x + 12
Write an equation in slope-intercept form Anjelita receives some money as a
birthday gift. She saves the money and adds more to it each week. After five weeks, she has saved $175. After 8 weeks she has $190.
How much does Anjelita save each week?
Write an equation in slope-intercept form Anjelita receives some money as a
birthday gift. She saves the money and adds more to it each week. After five weeks, she has saved $175. After eight weeks she has $190.
The question asks for slope, so find 2 points
(5, 175), (8, 190)
Write an equation in slope-intercept form
Plug the points into the equation for slope
Reduce the top and bottom Simplify the fraction
m =y2 – y1______x2 – x1
(5, 175), (8, 190)
8 – 5 190 – 175

Write an equation in slope-intercept form Anjelita receives some money as a
birthday gift. She saves the money and adds more to it each week. After five weeks, she has saved $175. After 8 weeks she has $190.
How much does Anjelita save each week?
m = 5, so Anjelita is saving $5 each week
Write an equation in slope-intercept form Anjelita receives some money as a
birthday gift. She saves the money and adds more to it each week. After five weeks, she has saved $175. After 8 weeks she has $190.
How much money did she receive for her birthday?
This question is asking for the b
Write an equation in slope-intercept form
Plug m into the equation Plug in one of the points Multiply Subtract 25 from both sides
(5, 175)y = mx + by = 5x + b175 = 5(5) + b175 = 25 + b
-25 -25150 = b
Write an equation in slope-intercept form
b = 150, so she received $150 for her birthday
150 = b
Write an equation in slope-intercept form Moesha feeds her dog the same amount
of dog food each day from a very large bag. On the 3rd day she has 44 cups left in the bag, and on the 11th day she has 28 cups left.How many cups of food does she feed her
dog a day?
Write an equation in slope-intercept form Moesha feeds her dog the same amount
of dog food each day from a very large bag. On the 3rd day she has 44 cups left in the bag, and on the 11th day she has 28 cups left.How many cups of food were in the bag
when she started?
Write an equation in slope-intercept form The cost of renting a van for one day
includes a flat rental fee plus a charge for each mile the van is driven while it is rented. A van that is driven 107 miles costs $97.15. a van that is driven 127 miles costs $106.15. What is the charge per mile?

Write an equation in slope-intercept form A calling plan charges a rate per minute
plus a flat fee. A 10-minute call to the Czech Republic costs $3.19. a 15-minute call costs $4.29. Based on a linear model, predict the cost of a 22-minute call.
Write an equation in slope-intercept form In 1994, the average price of a new
domestic car was $16,930. in 2002, the average price was $19,126. based on a linear model, what was the approximate predicted average price for 2008?
