Math Open Reference: Equations of a Line (Slope and Intercept Form)

This video shows how to graph a linear equation in standard form. He shows three examples of changing each equation into slope-intercept form and graphing it. One example is a line with a negative slope, one is a vertical line, and the...

Given two points on a line, find the value for slope using the rise over run formula. Then, find the y-intercept by plugging one of the point values into the equation of a line. Finally, these values are put into the equation of a line y...

In this short video, Sal shows how to graph a line in slope-intercept form.

Rates of change can be a slippery slope. The resource makes the connection between the rate of change and the slope of a line. It continues on to provide examples of how to interpret the slope and the y-intercepts of linear equations...

This lecture continues reviewing linear equations and slope problems with several example problems. Those who didn't grasp the concepts during class might find this lesson helpful.

Parallel lines must always have the same slope. Learners use this bit of information to extend their equation writing skills. A video lesson explains how to write the equation of a line parallel to a given line and through a given point....

Each form of a linear equation has its purpose — pupils just have to find it. Building on the previous lesson in the series, learners examine point-slope and standard form. Using point-slope form, pupils write the equation of a...

This problem has many steps involved. Finding equations and rearranging equations. Finding slope and getting the opposite reciprocal of a slope. Finding intercepts. There's a lot to do to solve this problem. It's not so difficult, it...

If you are given the value for slope (m), and the value for the intercept (b), all you need to do is remember what the slope-intercept form looks like. Y=mx+b. Then you just have to plug the given values into the slope-intercept line of...

There are many pieces and many parts to this problem. It seems simple enough to write an equation in slope-intercept form. In this problem, there is a given table of values and information from this table is used to get an equation...
