Chapter 1:
Formulas!
Slope-Intercept Formula:
What is it used for?
The slope-Intercept form is used to represent the slope of a line.
The Formula
y = mx + b
What do the variables mean?
M=slope
B=y-intercept
Keep it up!!
Point-Slope Formula
What is it used for?
The point-Slope Formula is used to write an equation of a line passing through a point on a graph.
The Formula
y-y1= m(x-x1) 
Slope Formula
What is it used for?
The slope formula is used to find the slope of a line using two coordinates on a graph.
The Formula
How to use the formula:
Will you be mine?
You must take both y1 and y2 coordinates and divide them by the x1 and x2 coordinates.
