2. Given a graph of a line, find its slope.

3. Given a linear equation, find the slope.

4. Given 2 points on a line, find the slope.

5. Find the slope of a line described by this equation: -9x = -20 + 4y.

6. When two lines are perpendicular, what can you conclude about their slopes?]]> 2017-10-18 21:52:23 UTC https://padlet.com/fawnnguyen/8ftdvw21dh51/wish/198472262 fawnnguyen https://padlet.com/fawnnguyen/8ftdvw21dh51/wish/198472289 1. Given a visual pattern, find the "slope" of the pattern.

2. Find the value of x so that the line passing through the points (3, 8) and (x, -8) has a slop of -8/3.

3. Sketch the graph of y = -2x - 5.

4. Sketch the graph of 4y + 6x = -12.

5. What is the equation for a line that runs parallel to the line y = 3x + 4 and passes through the point (5, -4)?

6. What is the equation for a line that runs perpendicular to the line 3x - 5y = 6 and passes through the point (0, -4)?

7. Why is the slope of a vertical line considered "undefined'? (Back up your reason mathematically.)

Maria needs to take a taxi from her house to the airport. The taxi ride will cost her $10 plus $0.25 per mile. She lives 34 miles from the airport. How much will this taxi ride cost her? What does the $10 mean in this problem when thinking in terms of linear equations? What about the $0.25 per mile?

2. A visual pattern is made up of squares. Create this pattern and draw what it might look like in steps 1, 2, and 3, if you know that it has 20 squares in step 5 and 40 squares in step 10.

3. The PFO received $850 from the last fundraiser. This money came from $230 in cash donations and in selling raffle tickets, each costing $5. How many raffle tickets were sold?]]> 2017-10-18 21:52:38 UTC https://padlet.com/fawnnguyen/8ftdvw21dh51/wish/198472299
