Write linear equations that model data and make predictions.. Write the point-slope form and the slope-intercept form of the equation of the line with slope that passes through the point (, ).. Write the point-slope form and the slope-intercept form of the equation of the line through the points (, ) and (, ).. The cost of graphing calculators over time has decreased. In 000, one particular brand sold for $6, in 0 that same calculator sold for $9. Use the coordinates of the two points (000, 6) (0, 9) to write the equation in point-slope and slope-intercept form.. Write the point-slope form and the slope-intercept form of the line passing through (, ) and parallel to the line whose equation is y= + 7. 5. Write the point-slope form and the slope-intercept form of the line passing through (-, 6) and perpendicular to the line whose equation is + y= 8. Distinguish between forms of an equation of a line: point-slope and slope-intercept. Point-slope equation with the slope of m and passing through point (, y ) is y y = m( ). Use the point-slope equation when given at least one point and the slope. If given two points and asked to find the equation of the line, one must first find the slope and then use the slope and one of the given points in the point-slope equation. Remind students that parallel lines have the same slope and perpendicular lines have slopes that are negative reciprocals.

The rational epression describes the time, in hours, to travel 0 miles at a rate of r 0 (r +0) miles per hour. a. Determine the value of r that would cause the epression to be undefined. b. Find the time in hours if r = 0. Rational epressions are quotients of two polynomials. They indicate division and division by zero is undefined. We must always eclude any value(s) of the variable that make a denominator zero. When simplifying rational epressions, first, factor the numerator and denominator completely, then divide both the numerator and the denominator by any common factors. A rational epression is simplified if its numerator and denominator have no common factors other than and. When reducing rational epressions, only factors, not common terms, that are common to the entire numerator and the entire denominator can be divided out.

Simplify by dividing; simplify, if possible.. a. 7 5 6 b. y y c. Simplify by the LCD method; simplify, if possible.. a. 7 5 6 b. c. y y Comple rational epressions are called comple fractions. They have numerators or denominators containing one or more rational epressions. One method for simplifying a comple rational epression is to add or subtract to get a single rational epression in the numerator and add or subtract to get a single rational epression in the denominator. Then divide by multiplying by the reciprocal of the term in the denominator. A second method for simplifying a comple rational epression is to multiply each term in the numerator and denominator by the least common denominator (LCD). This will produce an equivalent epression that does not contain fractions in the numerator or denominator. Both methods for simplifying comple rational epressions produce the same answer.
