It’s easier than you think…

Slope intercept form is:

y = mx + b

Our main goal is to get the y alone on one side of the

equation

When an equation is in slope-intercept form:

When an equation is in slope-intercept form:

What is the slope? ____________

2 1y x Now look at the equation below……

What is the intercept? ____________

Now look at the graph of the line.

21x – 7y =14Convert to Slope-Intercept Form:

2y + 26 = -6x

*** Check Your Answer ***

Try These…

1) 3x + y = 9 4) 3y – 4x = 9

2) 4x + 2y = 14 5) -4x – 5y = 7

3) 5y – 10x = 15 6) 2x = 15 + 3y
