Students find the slope of the line shown in the graph and tell what the slope represents in this situation. Students explain what the y-intercept represents. The student understands the meaning of the slope and intercepts of linear functions and interprets and describes the effects of changes in parameters of linear functions in real-world and mathematical situations. Then, for each function, students predict what they think the new graph will look like, use the graphing calculator to check their prediction, sketch the graph, and describe the change. The student understands the meaning of the slope and intercepts of linear functions and interprets and describes the effects of changes in parameters of linear functions in real-world and mathematical situations.
Students write the equation of the line below.
The student understands the meaning of the slope and intercepts of linear functions and interprets and describes the effects of changes in parameters of linear functions in real-world and mathematical situations. Clarifying Activity Students find the intercepts from the following representations. The student understands the meaning of the slope and intercepts of linear functions and interprets and describes the effects of changes in parameters of linear functions in real-world and mathematical situations. Graph the function represented by this problem. State the slope and y - intercept and give their meanings in this situation.
