Lesson 1b <strong>–</strong> Linear Equations<br />

Mini-Lesson<br />

Problem 6 YOU TRY <strong>–</strong> DRAW GRAPHS OF LINEAR EQUATIONS<br />

3<br />

Use the equation y x 9 for all parts of this problem. Label all plotted points.<br />

2<br />

a) Use the x-intercept and y-intercept to draw the graph of the line. Show your work to find<br />

these points. PLOT and LABEL the intercepts on the graph then connect them to draw your<br />

line.<br />

x-intercept : ( ___ , ___ ) y-intercept: ( ___ , ___ )<br />

Work to find x-intercept<br />

Work to find y-intercept<br />

b) Determine the coordinates of two OTHER ordered pairs and use those to graph the line.<br />

PLOT and LABEL the points you use.<br />

Remember from your previous math work that you can create a t-table with ordered pairs<br />

other than the intercepts OR you can insert the equation into your Y= list on your TI 83/84<br />

calculator then use the TABLE feature to identify two other ordered pairs. Remember to<br />

enter as y1=(-3/2)x + 9.<br />

Ordered pair 1: ( ___ , ___ ) Ordered pair 2: ( ___ , ___ )<br />

NOTICE: Your graphs for parts a) and b) should look exactly the same.<br />
