Graphing Slope-Intercept

Curated and Reviewed by Lesson Planet
This Graphing Slope-Intercept interactive also includes:
  • Graphing Slope-Intercept
  • Join to access all included materials

Slope-intercept form ... perhaps it has something to do with slope and intercepts? An easy-to-use interactive lets users adjust the locations of two points on a line. The interactive automatically updates the slope-intercept form of the equation, allowing scholars to connect graphs to equations. At the end, a game tests their knowledge of the concepts.
