Slope Intercept Method

TOC02/11/12 lntaylor ©

Linear Equations

• Slope intercept method y = mx + b

– You are given certain information in a slope intercept equation

• Given a slope which is called m

• M is a fraction that denotes Δy / Δx

• Δy informs whether the slope will be + or –

• Δx informs whether the slope is steep or flat

• Given a y intercept (yi or b) which informs where a line crosses the y axis

Graphing Inequalities

TOC02/11/12 lntaylor ©

Graphing Inequalities

• Need to know the following– Boundary lines are either solid or dotted– ≤ ≥ means solid line; point on line is included in the solution set– <> means dotted line; point on line is not included in solution set– Memorize the following rhyme

• Shoot an arrow• Which line is right• Turn back left• And shade the night

– What it means

• Shoot an arrow – means draw a line• Which line is right – means solid (≤ ≥) or dotted (< >)• Turn back left – means turn ≤≥<> back ¼ turn left• And shade the night – means shade which way the arrow is pointing
