Definition of an ordered pair
What is a point on the coordinate plane. (x, y)
100
The slope and y-intercept of the following line: y = -3x + 7
What is slope (m) = -3 and y-intercept (b) = 7
100
The equation of the line in slope intercept form with slope = 2/3 and a y-intercept of -6.
What is y = 2/3x - 6
100
Use the table to determine if the data represents a linear relationship. If it does, find the slope.
Yes, this is a linear relationship. m = -1/2
200
Definition of y-intercept
The point where the line crosses the y-axis. (0, b)
200
Use the table to find the slope & y-intercept of the line
What is m = 1/2 and b = 6
200
The equation of the line in slope-intercept form that goes through (-5, -1) and (0, 2).
What is y = 3/5x + 2

The following equations represent walkathon pledge plans (for money earned after miles walked). Explain each pledge plan in terms of rate and starting point: y = 4x; y = 2x + 6; y = 10
What is y = 4x --> You get $4 for every mile walked; y = 2x + 6 --> You get $6 for participating and $2 for each mile walked; y = 10 --> You get $10 no matter how many miles you walk
300
Definition of slope
What is the ratio of change in y to change in x. rise/run; m
300
The slope of the line the goes through (-5, -4) and (1, 4)
What is m = 4/3
300
The equation of the line in slope intercept form that goes though (-1, 7) and has a slope of -5.
What is y = -5x + 2
300
Use the table to determine if the data represents a linear relationship. If it does, find the slope.
No, this is not a linear relationship. There is not a constant rate of change.
400
Definition of Linear Relationship
What is a relationship between two variables where there is a constant rate of change. Makes a straight line on a graph.
400
The slope and y-intercept of the line that goes through (-3, -9) and (0, 6)
What is m = 5 and b = 6
400
The equation of the line in slope intercept form that goes through (-2, 3) and (1, 9).
What is y = 2x + 7

Molly is planning a skating party and she has to choose between two different companies. Option 1 charges a flat fee of $10 and $3 for every pair of skates rented. Option 2 charges $5 for every pair of skates rented. Write an equation that represents the cost plan for each option. Make sure to define your variables.
What is y = cost; x = # skates rented Option 1: y = 3x + 10 Option 2: y = 5x
500
What the variables represent in slope-intercept form (y = mx + b)
What is y = dependent variable x = independent variable m = slope b = y-intercept
