Writing Linear Equations
You now know how to use different combinations of information to write linear equations. Somehow you need to determine slope and y-intercept from given information. You will use slope-intercept form often.
jwiese asked about the x-intercept in class the other day. While it does not appear in the slope-intercept form for a linear equation, knowing the x-intercept provides you with an ordered pair, e.g. if the x-intercept is 5, the ordered pair is (5, 0).
Due on Thursday:
1. You need to complete all of Lesson 7-5.
2. Lesson 7-6, Covering the Reading.
If you run out of math to do, feel free to continue working in the Lesson Masters. Be very nice to Mrs. Roche (although I know you will).
In case I cannot sign on from Atlanta, be sure you study for your quiz on Friday. It is only five questions long and you need a ruler and pencil...NO CALCULATOR!

Hi Mrs. Burke,
Do you like Atlanta? Mrs. Roche was very nice! I agree with wiesej, knowing the x-intercept is very helpful!
See you soon!

Hi Mrs. Burke,
Hows Atlanta? I helped out the substitute yesterday, does that count for extra credit? Is the weather nice?
See you Monday!
