1. Explain how to find the intercepts of a line given its equation. Then find the intercepts of the standard form Ax + By = C.
2. Write a sentence to explain how direct variation and the slope-intercept form of a linear equation are related.
3. Describe two ways in which a direct variation problem may be solved.
4.Why can't you write the equation of a vertical line in slope-intercept form?
5. You Decide Taka wrote y = 3.5x - 8 as an equation of a line having a slope of 3.5 and a y-intercept of -8. Chuma wrote 7x - 2y = 16 as an equation of the same line. Who is correct, and why?
6. List all the types of information you can use to write an equation of a line. Be sure to include examples of each.
7. Find the x and y-intercepts of the graph of the equation.
(3/4)x - 2y + 7 = 0
8. Write an equation in slope-intercept form of a line with the given slope and y-intercept. Then write the equation in standard form.
m = 2/3, b = -10
9. Find the slope and y-intercept of the graph of the equation.
