Slope Intercept Form

Example of Distributive Property

2(3-4x) = 2 times 3 minus 2 times 4x or 6-8x

Standard Form

Ax+By=C

Slope Intercept Form

Slope intercept form consists of the x-intercept, the y-intercept, and the slope.

Finding slope given a graph

You could do y2-y1 over x2-x1

Direct Variation

y varies directly as x for y=kx, where k does not equal 0

Point Slope Form

y-y1=m(x-x1)

Slope Formula

y=mx+b

Finding y-intercept given an equation

y=mx+b. b represents y-intercept, so whatever took b's place is the y-intercept.

Finding slope given an equation

y=mx+b. m represents slope, so whatever took m's place is the slope.

Finding x-intercept given an equation

y=mx+b. replace y with 0 and solve for x.
