Slope – intercept Form
Let’s Practice!
Write an equation of the line given the slope
and containing the given y-intercept. Express the
equation in the form y = mx + b and in standard
form.
a. m = -4, b = 7
b. m = 2/5, b = -8
c. m = -6, b = 4
Learning Objective: Students should be able to write the equation of a line in slope-intercept form.
Slope – intercept Form
Let’s Practice!
Find the equation in standard form of the line
passing through (0, -5) and whose slope is 4/5.
Find the equation in standard form of the line
passing through (0, 8) and whose slope is 3/4.
Learning Objective: Students should be able to write the equation of a line in slope-intercept form.
Slope – intercept Form Let’s Practice!
Write an equation of a line whose y-intercept is
3/5 and slope is -9/2. Express your answer in
standard form.
Write an equation of a line whose y-intercept is -3
and slope is 5/9. Express your answer in standard
form.
Learning Objective: Students should be able to write the equation of a line in slope-intercept form.
Point-slope Form
The equation of the line passing through (x1, y1)
with slope m is given by
y – y1 = m(x – x1)

1. Find the equation of the line that passes
through (5, 8) and with slope 4. Write the
equation in standard form.
Learning Objective: Students should be able to write the equation of a line in point-slope form.
Point-slope Form
The equation of the line passing through (x1, y1)
with slope m is given by
y – y1 = m(x – x1)
Let’s Practice!
2. Find the equation of the line that passes
through (4,7) and with slope 5/2. Write the
equation in standard form.
Learning Objective: Students should be able to write the equation of a line in point-slope form.
Take the challenge!

Application
You are one of the scientists excavating for dinosaur remains. To guide your team, you decided to map the excavation site on a rectangular coordinate system. One of the bones lies from (-5, 8) to (10, -1) and another bone lies from (-10, -3) to (-5, -6). Previous excavations indicate that the bones excavated are parallel to each other. The excavation team leader wants to find out if the positions of the bones are parallel.
a. Find the equations in standard form.
b. Prove if the bones are parallel to each other.
