1. The document provides instructions on solving various math problems involving slopes of lines, writing equations of lines given points, and cutting a board into equal pieces.
2. It also lists topics to study such as relations, functions, domains, ranges, and formulas for standard, slope-intercept, and point-slope forms.
3. Students are asked to find slopes of lines between given points and identify if they are positive, negative, or zero slopes.

3. Frank has purchased 50
candy bars to make cookies.
If he uses 2/3 of a candy bar
for each cookie, how many
will he be able to make?
4. Pablo has a board that is 4 ½ feet long,
and he wants to cut it into three pieces all
of the same length. Find the length of
each of the three pieces.
3. Study your vocabulary: relation, function, domain,
range, etc.
Write the formulas for this unit: Standard
Form, Slope-Intercept Form, Point-Slope
Form (coming soon)
Know which form to use and how to
write an equation and graph a line given:
a. two points b. a point and the slope
c. the intercepts
Be able to: a.) describe the slope of a straight line b.)
explain how a slope of 2 is different than a slope of
½. c.) explain how a positive slope differs from a
negative slope d.) explain the characteristics of a
horizontal and vertical line
6. Find the slope of the line that
passes through the given points
and identify what type of slope
it is:
1. (-1, 2) & (3, 4) 2. (1, 2) & (1, 3)
3. (-1, -2) & (-4, 1)
9. Write an equation given two points: (1,1) (5,1)
Steps:
1. Find the slope.
2. Choose one of the points to use.
3. Substitute the values of m, x, and y into the
slope- intercept form and solve for b.
4. Write the slope-intercept form using the values of m
and b.
