Show your work. Slope = rise ÷ run; the equation of a line can be written as y = (slope)x + (y-intercept).
Answer: slope 5; y-intercept 0
In y = (slope)x + (y-intercept), the number multiplying x is the slope and the constant is where the line crosses the y-axis.
Answer: slope −6; y-intercept 5
In y = (slope)x + (y-intercept), the number multiplying x is the slope and the constant is where the line crosses the y-axis.
Answer: slope −5; y-intercept 9
In y = (slope)x + (y-intercept), the number multiplying x is the slope and the constant is where the line crosses the y-axis.
Answer: 2
- slope = rise ÷ run = (−2 − (−4)) ÷ (4 − 3)
- = 2 ÷ 1 = 2
Answer: −3
- slope = rise ÷ run = (−14 − 1) ÷ (−1 − (−6))
- = −15 ÷ 5 = −3
Answer: slope 3; y-intercept −6
In y = (slope)x + (y-intercept), the number multiplying x is the slope and the constant is where the line crosses the y-axis.
Answer: slope 4; y-intercept −6
In y = (slope)x + (y-intercept), the number multiplying x is the slope and the constant is where the line crosses the y-axis.
Answer: 3
- slope = rise ÷ run = (−7 − (−4)) ÷ (−4 − (−3))
- = −3 ÷ −1 = 3
Answer: slope 1; y-intercept 4
In y = (slope)x + (y-intercept), the number multiplying x is the slope and the constant is where the line crosses the y-axis.
Answer: slope 1; y-intercept 8
In y = (slope)x + (y-intercept), the number multiplying x is the slope and the constant is where the line crosses the y-axis.
Marking tips
- Give credit for correct method even when the final answer slips — the working shows where the thinking went right.
- For open-ended tasks, use the success criteria as a checklist rather than looking for one "right" answer.
- Celebrate what went well first, then pick one thing to work on next.
