10th Grade Slope and Linear Equations Worksheet — Level 2 — Practice Set 4 — Answers
Show your work. Slope = rise ÷ run; the equation of a line can be written as y = (slope)x + (y-intercept).
Answer: slope 6; 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 −6; 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: y = x − 3
- y = 1x + (y-intercept)
- −2 = 1 × 1 + (y-intercept)
- y-intercept = −2 − 1 = −3
- y = x − 3
Answer: slope −4; 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.
Answer: −
- slope = rise ÷ run = (13 − 6) ÷ (0 − 4)
- = 7 ÷ −4 = −
Answer: slope 2; 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: y = −4x + 5
- y = −4x + (y-intercept)
- −7 = −4 × 3 + (y-intercept)
- y-intercept = −7 − (−12) = 5
- y = −4x + 5
Answer: 4
- slope = rise ÷ run = (2 − (−2)) ÷ (5 − 4)
- = 4 ÷ 1 = 4
Answer: slope −4; 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 = rise ÷ run = (2 − 1) ÷ (8 − 4)
- = 1 ÷ 4 =
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.
