_____________
______________
How to graph with slope intercept form:
1. Plot a point on the ______________________.
Make sure you put it on the y-axis.
2. Use the ______________ to find the other
points on the line.
Find the slope and the y intercept
y = 4/5x + 5
3. Connect your points with a line.
y = -3x + 17
Graph y = 2x + 3
