  1. Graph the following line that passes through the given point and the slope
    1. (3,2); (-3, 2) ; m =23 {2 \over 3}
    2. (4,2); (4, -2); m = -35 {3 \over 5}
    3. (1,2); (1, 2); m = undefined
    4. (2,5); (2, 5); m = 0
    5. x int = 2; m = -1
    6. y int = -3; m = 32 {3 \over 2}
  2. Find the slope, x and y intercepts of each line.

    1. Graphing linear functions using a single point and slope

    2. Find x intercepts, y intercepts, and slope from the graph

    3. What is the x intercept, y intercept, and slope of the vertical line in the graph

    4. Determine the x intercept, y intercept and slope of the horizontal line from the graph
Topic Notes
?
If we are given a single point and the slope of a straight line, we will be able to graph it. By the same token, we can determine the slope and intercepts if we are given from its graph.
