Show your work. Slope = rise ÷ run; the equation of a line can be written as y = (slope)x + (y-intercept).
Answer: −3
- slope = rise ÷ run = (−8 − (−2)) ÷ (7 − 5)
- = −6 ÷ 2 = −3
Answer: 2
- slope = rise ÷ run = (−7 − (−5)) ÷ (5 − 6)
- = −2 ÷ −1 = 2
Answer: slope −5; 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 2; y-intercept −1
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 = (8 − 6) ÷ (−7 − (−6))
- = 2 ÷ −1 = −2
Answer: slope 5; y-intercept −1
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 2
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 = (−17 − (−2)) ÷ (−7 − (−2))
- = −15 ÷ −5 = 3
Answer: slope −2; 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.
