1. SLOPE

2. We have already learned about constant rate of change (constant of proportionality) and found the constant rate of change in graphs and tables. If a line is a proportional relationship---what will it look like on a graph?

3. We have already learned about constant rate of change (constant of proportionality) and found the constant rate of change in graphs and tables. If a line is a proportional relationship---what will it look like on a graph? The line will go through the origin (0, 0).

4. A proportional relationship can be described by an equation of the form y = kx, where k is a number called the constant of proportionality or direct variation.

5. Nonproportional relationships can be represented on a graph as well.

6. Then graph points—connect points. Fill in the table to find the points on the graph using the formula: y = 2x + 1 xy 0 1 2 3

7. The graph points—connect points. Fill in the table to find the points on the graph using the formula: y = 2x + 1 xy 01 13 25 37 How do you know this is NOT a proportional relationship?

8. The graph points—connect points. Fill in the table to find the points on the graph using the formula: y = 2x + 1 xy 01 13 25 37 How do you know this is NOT a proportional relationship? It does not go through the origin.

9. Today we will learn about slopes of lines. Watch this quick video https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=qE463XcV1Ro

10. PASS OUT FOLDABLE FOLD IN HALF—WHERE SLOPE IS IN FRONT

12. y intercept is the point at which the graph crosses (intercepts) the y axis. The y intercept is the value of y when x = 0. The slope intercept form is y = mx + b slope y intercept

13. LABEL THE GRAPHS ON YOUR FOLDABLE positive negative zero undefined Going up stairs is positive slope, Down stairs is negative slope.

14. Then graph—connect points. Fill in the table to find the points on the graph using the formula: y = 2x + 1 xy 01 13 25 37 From the graph earlier-- Is this a positive, negative, zero or undefined slope?

15. Then graph—connect points. Fill in the table to find the points on the graph using the formula: y = 2x + 1 xy 01 13 25 37 From the graph earlier-- Is this a positive, negative, zero or undefined slope? positive

16. NOW WE WILL WORK SOME TOGETHER
