Warm-Up
What is the vertical rise of a hill, over a 2 km horizontal distance with a grade of
31.5%?
Answer
What is the vertical rise of a hill, over a 2 km horizontal distance with a grade of
31.5%?

Therefore, the vertical rise of the hill would be 0.63 km.

Use a table of values to graph the equation

Let’s solve for y first!

Use a table of values to graph the equation

Let’s solve for y first!

What would be appropriate values for x to

substitute into the equation?
x y O.P.
x y O.P.
-6 -5 (-6,-5)
-3 -4 (-3,-4)
0 -3 (0,-3)
3 -2 (3,-2)
6 -1 (6,-1)

is a linear equation in slope/y-intercept form.

How many points do we actually need to
graph a line?
Find the x and y intercepts to graph the line...

x-int: y = 0 y-int: x = 0
 Find the x and y intercepts to graph the line...

x-int: y = 0 y-int: x = 0

∴ (3,0) is an intercept ∴ (0,-2) is an intercept

Graph y = 2x - 1, using the slope and y-intercept.
m=2
y - int: (0,-1)
Graph y = 2x - 1, using the slope and y-intercept.
m=2
y - int: (0,-1)
