1 Warm Up h(-8) What value of x would make h(x) = 7?
Given h(x) = find the following: h(-8) What value of x would make h(x) = 7? What value of x would make h(x) = -3?

2 HW Check – 4.1

3 Slope of a line

4 What is the meaning of this sign?
Icy Road Ahead Steep Road Ahead Curvy Road Ahead Trucks Entering Highway Ahead

5 What does the 7% mean? So, what is the meaning of slope???
7% is the slope of the road. It means the road rises 7 feet vertically for every 100 feet horizontally. 7 feet 100 feet So, what is the meaning of slope??? Slope is the steepness of a line.

6 1) Determine the slope (rate of Change) of the line.
When given the graph, it is easier to apply “rise over run”. Rise – is the vertical change. Run – is the horizontal change.

7 Find the slope: 2) 3)

8 A line has a positive slope if it is going uphill from left to right.
Slope can be expressed different ways: ****Slope is the same as rate of change**** A line has a positive slope if it is going uphill from left to right. A line has a negative slope if it is going downhill from left to right.

9 When given points, it is easier to use the formula!
2) Find the slope (rate of change) of the line that passes through the points (-2, -2) and (4, 1). When given points, it is easier to use the formula!

10 Find the slope (rate of change) of the line that passes through (3, 5) and (-1, 4).

11 You try! Find the slope of the line that goes through the points (-5, 3) and (2, 1).

12 What is the slope of a horizontal line?
H0y The line doesn’t rise! All horizontal lines have a slope of 0.

13 What is the slope of a vertical line?
VuX The line doesn’t run! All vertical lines have an undefined slope.

14

15 VuX and H0y VuX: Vertical lines have undefined slope with an equation x = a number. HOy: Horizontal lines have zero as their slope with an equation y = a number.

16 Draw a line through the point (2,0) that has a slope of 3.
1. Graph the ordered pair (2, 0). 2. From (2, 0), apply rise over run (write 3 as a fraction). 3. Plot a point at this location. 4. Draw a straight line through the points.
