1. The ABSCISSA of the
coordinates of the point in
which the graph intersects
the x – axis.
2. The ORDINATE of the
coordinates of the point in
which the graph intersects

finding the quotient of the
rise and run.
4. Lines with positive slope rise
to the right while lines with
negative slope fall to the
right.
