Slope Intercept Formula ETPT 2020 Team Bucyrus Allison Spence, Jacob Brehmer, Corey Hotmer 4/24/13
introduction • introductiontoformulavideo
Formula Review • The slope intercept formula: y= mx + b m= slope b = the y-intercept
Reading a graph x-intercept= HORIZONTAL y-intercept= VERTICAL Points are: (-1, 1) and (0, 2) http://www.mathwarehouse.com/algebra/linear_equation/slope-intercept-form.php
Finding the slope • Slope= Rise / Run = 1/1 = 1 Runs over 1 Rises 1
Finding the y-intercept The line intercepts the y-axis at point (0,2) Therefore, the y-intercept is 2.
Plugging in the variables y= mx+b y= 1x+ 2 m= slope m= 1 b= y-intercept b= 2
