Activity Overview
Students will identify x- and y-intercepts graphically. Students will calculate the slope between 2 points. Students will write the equation of a line in slope-intercept form when given the graph of the line.
Before the Activity
If you are using the TI-Navigator System with the TI-73 you will need the attached .pdf file.
Students should be comfortable with graphing in the coordinate plane. Provide students with definitions of x- and y-intercepts and slope. Show slope intercept form.
During the Activity
Students will identify x- and y-intercepts graphically. Students will calculate the slope between 2 points. Students will write the equation of a line in slope-intercept form when given the graph of the line.
After the Activity
Students complete the attached learning check document for assessment.
