CCSS.8.F.A.3

When we graph, we begin with the "b" -

This is the y-intercept - which means we plot this point on the:

• x - axis

• y - axis

• origin

After we plot the y-intercept -

we use the "m" - slope - to plot a second point.

Slope should be a fraction to represent:

• Simplified version

When we RUN - we always run in which direction?

• Down

• Right

• Up

• Left

• Start at 4 on the y-axis : Move Up 3 and Right 1

• Start at 3 on the y-axis : Move Down 4 and Right 1

• Start at -4 on the y-axis : Move Down 3 and Right 1

• Start at -4 on the y-axis : Move Up 3 and Right 1
