Identifying a Linear Equation • The exponent of each variable is 1. • The variables are added or subtracted. • The slope-intercept form of a linear equation is: y = mx + b, where m represents the slope and b represents the y-intercept • The standard form of a linear equation is: Ax + By = C whereAorB can equal zero and A > 0 • There are no radicals in the equation. • Every linear equation graphs as a line.
Examples of linear equations Equation is in Ax + By =C form Rewrite with both variables on left side … x + 6y =3 There is no y-intercept for this equation…why??? Multiply both sides of the equation by -1 … 2a – b = -5 Multiply both sides of the equation by 3 … 4x –y =-21 2x + 4y =8 6y = 3 – x x = 1 -2a + b = 5
Examples of Nonlinear Equations The following equations are NOT in the standard form of Ax + By =C, or slope-intercept form ofy = mx + b: 4x2 + y = 5 xy + x = 5 s/r + r = 3 The exponent is 2 There is a radical in the equation Variables are multiplied Variables are divided
x and y -intercepts • The x-intercept is the point where a line crosses the x-axis. The general form of the x-intercept is (x, 0). The y-coordinate will always be zero. • The y-intercept is the point where a line crosses the y-axis. The general form of the y-intercept is (0, y). The x-coordinate will always be zero.
Finding the x-intercept • For the equation 2x + y = 6, we know that y must equal 0. What must x equal? • Plug in 0 for y and simplify. 2x + 0 = 6 2x = 6 x = 3 • So (3, 0) is the x-intercept of the line.
Finding the y-intercept • For the equation 2x + y = 6, we know that x must equal 0. What must y equal? • Plug in 0 for x and simplify. 2(0) + y = 6 0 + y = 6 y = 6 • So (0, 6) is the y-intercept of the line.
x-intercept: Plug in y = 0 x = 4y - 5 x = 4(0) - 5 x = 0 - 5 x = -5 (-5, 0) is the x-intercept y-intercept: Plug in x = 0 x = 4y - 5 0 = 4y - 5 5 = 4y = y (0, ) is the y-intercept Find the x and y- interceptsof x = 4y – 5
x y Find the x and y-intercepts of x = 3 • x-intercept • Plug in y = 0. There is no y. Why? • x = 3 is a verticalline so x always equals 3. • (3, 0) is the x-intercept. • y-intercept • A vertical line never crosses the y-axis. • There is no y-intercept.
Vertical Lines • Slope is undefined. • Equation form is x = #. • Example 1: • Write an equation of a line and graph it with undefined slope and passes through (1, 0). • x = 1 • Example 2: • Write an equation of a line that passes through (3, 5) and (3, -2). • x = 3
x y Find the x and y-intercepts of y = -2 • y-intercept • y = -2 is a horizontal line so y always equals -2. • (0,-2) is the y-intercept. • x-intercept • Plug in y = 0. y cannot = 0 because y = -2. • y = -2 is a horizontal line so it never crosses the x-axis. • There is no x-intercept.
Horizontal Lines • Slope is zero. • Equation form is y = #. • Example 1: • Write an equation of a line and graph it with zero slope and y-intercept of -2. • y = -2 • Example 2: • Write an equation of a line and graph it that passes through (2, 4) and (-3, 4). • y = 4
