Practice
Identify the slope and y-intercept of the line with the given equation. If the equation is
not in slope-intercept form, put it in that form!!!
1.) y = 5x – 3
2.) 3x – 3y = 12
3.) 2x + y = 6

Practice Graphing lines using slope and y-intercept:
For each example, plot the y-intercept and then make two more points using the slope of
the line.
1.) slope = ½ ; y-int = 4
2.) m = -1 ; y-int = -3
3.) m = 2 ; y-int = -1
