  1. 5.4 The Slope Formula Algebra 5.4

  2. Learning Targets Language Goal • Students will be able to verbally explian how to find slope. Math Goal • Students will be able to find slope using the slope formula. Essential Questions • What is the important information we can get from finding the slope?

  3. 5.4 Warm-up

  4. 5.3 Homework Check

  5. 5.3 Homework Check

  6. Slope Formula • The letter m represents slope! • Need: Two points on a line to determine slope • Formula:

  7. Example 1: Positive Slope Rises • Find the slope of a line passing through(-3, 0) and (-1, 6)

  8. Example 2: Negative Slope Falls Find the slope of the line passing through (-2, 1) and (1, -3)

  9. Example 3: Positive or Negative? Find the slope of the line passing through (5, 0) and (0, 2)

  10. Example 4: Zero Slope (Horizontal) Find the slope of the line passing through (-1, -3) and (5, -3)

  11. Example 5: Undefined Slope (Vertical) Find the slope of the line passing through (0, -1) and (0, 4)

  12. Notecard Slope • On your notecard write an ordered pair (x, y). • Your x and y coordinate may contain any number between -10 and 10. • Fractions are allowed too. • Once it is written on your notecard wait until further instructions.

  13. Notecard Slope • You will partner with someone in the class • Use your two points to determine the slope of the line. • Once you have found your slope determine whether your slope is positive, negative, no slope or undefined. • We will rotate as a class.

  14. Example 6: Given Slope, find y –coordinate Find the vale of y so that the line passing through the points (-3, y) and (1, 5) has a slope of -2.

  15. Example 7: Given Slope, find y –coordinate Find the vale of y so that the line passing through the points (3, y) and (5, 8) has a slope of 2.

  16. Example 8: Finding Slope from Tables • First, use the table to write two ordered pairs. • Then, use those two points to calculate slope using the slope formula.

  17. Example 8: Finding Slope from Tables Find two ordered pairs from the table. Use the ordered pairs to calculate slope.

  18. Example 8: Finding Slope from Tables Find two ordered pairs from the table. Use the ordered pairs to calculate slope.

  19. Example 8: Finding Slope from Tables Find two ordered pairs from the table. Use the ordered pairs to calculate slope.

  20. Example 9: Finding Slope from an Equation • Step 1: Find the x – intercept • Step 2: Find the y – intercept • Step 3: Use the slope formula

  21. Example 9: Finding Slope from an Equation • Find the slope of the line described by

  22. Example 9: Finding Slope from an Equation • Find the slope of the line described by

  23. Whiteboards with LQ • Pass out Whiteboards or students can do in notebook. • Go over as a class.
