1. GRE: Graphical Representations COORDINATE GEOMETRY

2. The Coordinate Plane Coordinate planes are formed by two axes: the x-axis and the y-axis The point where the two axes meet is called the origin. The coordinates of the origin are (0, 0). Coordinate planes are divided into 4 quadrants. y x

3. Plotting Points in the Coordinate Plane Points in a coordinate plane are identified according to their coordinates. Coordinates are written as a pair: (x- coordinate, y-coordinate) The x-coordinate indicates how far horizontally (left or right) the point is from the origin. The y-coordinate indicates how far vertically (up or down) the point is from the origin Example – the coordinates of point A in the coordinate plane is (3, 1) since it is 3 spaces to the right of the origin and 1 space above the origin A

4. You Try Plot the following points in the coordinate plane on the left: A(-2, 4) B(0, -1) C(3, 0) D(5, -2) E(-6, -5)

5. You Try State the coordinates of each point in the coordinate plane to the left. A B C D E

6. Finding the Slope Between Two Points What is slope? - Slope is the steepness of a line - Slope is rate of change or the rate at which “y” changes as “x” increases by 1 - Slope is the rise (vertical change) of a line divided by its run (horizontal change) - “m” is the symbol used to represent slope Slope Formula: where (x 1, y 1 ) and (x 2, y 2 ) are points on the line

7. More Important Points About Slope If a line goes down going from left to right, then the slope of the line is negative. If a line goes up going from left to right, then the slope of the line is positive. The steeper the line, the greater the slope. The slope of horizontal lines is 0. The slope of vertical lines is undefined.

14. Writing Equations of Lines When writing an equation of a line, all we need are the slope of the line and the coordinates of a point through which the line passes. We can then plug the slope and point into the following formula: y – y 1 = m(x – x 1 ) where m is the slope and (x 1, y 1 ) are the coordinates of the point Lastly, we can manipulate the equation to get “y” by itself on the left side of the equation.

25. Forms of Linear Equations Lines in coordinate planes can be represented by equations There are 3 basic forms of linear equations: 1. slope-intercept form: y = mx + b 2. point-slope form: y – y 1 = m(x – x 1 ) 3. standard form: ax + by = c Each form has its own unique characteristics

26. Slope-Intercept Form y = mx + b This form explicitly gives the slope (m) of the line and the y-intercept (b) The y-intercept is the point where the line crosses the y- axis (0, b) x and y are general variables and are not replaced by numbers However, m and b are replaced by numbers

27. Examples of Slope-Intercept Form Example 1: y = -4x + 5 m = -4 and b = 5, so the slope of the line is -4 and the point where the line crosses the y-axis is (0, 5) Example 2: y = 7x m = 7 and b = 0, so the slope of the line is 7 and the point where the line crosses the y-axis is (0, 0)

30. Form of Linear EquationKey Info In Equation Slope-Intercept y = mx + b Slope (m), y-intercept (0, b) Point-Slope y – y 1 = m(x – x 1 ) Slope (m), point through which line passes (x 1, y 1 ) Standard Form ax + by = c Slope (m) = -a/b

31. Special Linear Equations y = constant Horizontal line slope = 0 Example: y = 4 A horizontal line that goes through (0, 4) x = constant Vertical line slope is undefined Example: x = 4 A vertical line that goes through (4, 0)

32. Graphing Linear Equations In order to graph linear equations, we must either know (1) two points that the line passes through or (2) the slope of the line and a point that the line passes through. For example, if we want to graph the equation y = 3x + 4, then we know the slope is 3 and the y-intercept is (0, 4). So, we’ll plot the point (0, 4) and find another point using the slope.

33. More Notes on Graphing Linear Equations If the slope is positive, then go up the amount in the numerator and right the amount in the denominator, or go down the amount in the numerator and left the amount in the denominator. If the slope is negative, then go down the amount in the numerator and right the amount in the denominator, or go up the amount in the numerator and go left the amount in the denominator.
