Finding Slope and y-Intercept from Tables

The video tutorial explains how to find the slope and y-intercept from a table. It begins with an introduction to the concepts of slope as the rate of change and y-intercept. The tutorial then demonstrates how to calculate the change in Y and X values from a table, leading to the calculation of the slope as a fraction. It also covers how to identify the y-intercept by finding the X value of zero. The video concludes with an example problem to reinforce the concepts learned.

What is another term used to describe the slope?

• Rate of slope

• Rate of increase

• Rate of change

• Rate of decrease

In a vertical table, where is the Y value typically located?

• First value listed

• Left value

• Top value

• Second value listed

What is the change in Y when moving from -10 to -7?

• Subtracting 7

• Adding 3

• Adding 7

• Subtracting 3

How do you find the change in X in a table?

• By looking at the first value listed

• By looking at the bottom value in a horizontal table

• By looking at the second value listed

• By looking at the top value in a horizontal table

What is the slope if the change in Y is 3 and the change in X is 2?

• 2/3

• 3/2

• 1/2

• 2/1

Where do you find the y-intercept in a table?

• Where the Y value is 1

• Where the Y value is 0

• Where the X value is 0

• Where the X value is 1

What is the y-intercept if the X value is 0 and the corresponding Y value is -4?

• 2

• -4

• 0

• 4

What is the slope-intercept form of the equation if the slope is 3/2 and the y-intercept is -4?

• y = 2/3x + 4

• y = 3/2x - 4

• y = 2/3x - 4

• y = 3/2x + 4
