What does Linear Mean 

Is a Straight Line

100

Which equation represents a proportional relationship between an amount of blue paint, x and an amount of white paint, y? and why?

y=4x+2                      y=3/4x                      y=x3                        y=5/x

y= 3/4x and because there is nothing after x  

100

y= 2x + 3

What is the m and the b

m = 2

b= 3

On a graph how do you find slope? 

Rise/ Run 

100

When reading a word problem how do you know which number is your slope

it will be next to the key word; Each, every, per

100

A solution is when? 

Two lines are intersecting each other

200

What are the 3 key words for a word problem? What do you do to those key words? 

Per, Each, and Every. You cross them out. 

200

Which equation represents a non-proportional relationship between x and y?

y=2x                      y=2x+5                     y=3x                       y=4x

y= 2x+5 because it does not go through the origin because it start at 5 

200

y= x - 2

What is the slope and y-intercept? 

x= 1

b= -2

200

On a graph, how do you find y-intercept? 

Where the line crosses the y-axis 

200

When reading a word problem how do you know which number is your y-intercept?

It will be the starting/initial/ beginning value. It will not change. 

200

What is the solution? How do you know?

(6,-1)

300

What is the equations for slope and y-intercept? What does m and b represent? 

y = mx+b

m= Slope 

b= y-intercept

300

Which graph represents a proportional relationship? And Why 


D

300

y= 2/3x 

What is the m and what is the b? 

m= 2/3

b= 0 

300

What is the y-Intercept? 

-7

Erin has completed reading 10 pages of a book.  Every hour she reads, she adds another 20 pages to her progress in the book.  Which equation represents the relationship between the number of hours Erin reads, x, and the total number of pages she has read, y. What is the equation? 

y= 10x+ 20

300

What is the solution? How do you know?

(-2,1)

400

What is slope and what are the different types of slopes 

Teacher chooses 

Positive, Negative, Zero, Undefine

400

Which representation shows a proportional relationship between x and y? How do you know?

D

400
How would you write the equations? 

Slope = 5/4, y-intercept =0

y= 5/4x

400

What is the slope? 

5/3

A local shipping company bases its charges on the weight of the items being shipped.  In addition to charging $0.50 per pound, the company also charges a one-time fee of $15 to set up a customer’s account.  Write an equation for the problem situation. 

y= 0.05x + 15

400

Solve for b. The point is (1,2) and the slope 3. (Hint: Replace x and y with the numbers)

y = 3x + b 



b = -1 

500

What is the difference between Proportional Vs. Non - Proportional

Proportional: A Straight line, Goes through the origin, in y=kx form

Non-Proportional: Not a Straight line, does not go through the origin, in y=mx + b form

500

Which table does not show a proportional relationship between x and y?

 

A

500

How would you write the equations? 

Slope = -2, y-intercept = -10

y= -2x-10

500

What is the equation of this graph? 

y=-4x+3
