Determine the Equation of a Line Given a Table (Basic) - Example 1

Curated and Reviewed by Lesson Planet

If the slope and y-intercept aren't known, just find them. Scholars watch a short video that covers an example of writing an equation of a line in slope-intercept form given a table of values. They learn to apply the slope formula to find the slope, algebraically determine the y-intercept, and use these values to write the equation.
