Equation of line can be written as y = mx + b. where m is the slope and b is y-intercept.

Given m and b, one can write linear equation
For example: m=2, b=5
Y=2x+5
On the next page, Given m and b in first column.
Match to the respected equation in second column.
Cut the number given below on the next page and paste in front of equation.

Dynamites ONLY:
You may use your math book, pages 91-93 to solve these problems. You can use extra sheet of
paper for your work.
1. Write an equation of the line that passes through (1,-1) and is perpendicular to the line y= -
1/2x+6.


2. Write an equation of the line that passes through (6,-10) and is perpendicular to the line passes
through (4,-6) and (3,-4).


3. Write an equation of the line that passes through (2,-7) and is parallel to the line x=5.


4. Write an equation of line that passes through (4, 6) and is parallel to the line that passes
through (6,-6) and (10,-4).


5. Write an equation of the line that passes through (3,2) and (a) is perpendicular and (b) is parallel
to the line y= -3x+2.


6. Write an equation of line that passes through (2, 3) and has a slope of -1/2.


7. Redo problem 6 by substituting the given point and slope into y=m x+ b. Then solve for b to
write an equation of the line. Explain why this method does not change the equation of line.





8. Write an equation of line that passes through (-2,-1) and (3,4).




9. Redo problem 8 by substituting (3,4) for (x1,y1) into y-y1 = m (x-x1). Then rewrite the equation
in slope intercept form. Explain why using the point (3,4) does not change the equation of the
line.




10. Define constant of variation for two variables x and y that vary directly?
