Coordinate Plane
Construct a Cartesian
coordinate system on a
plane by drawing two
coordinate lines, called
the coordinate axes,
perpendicular at the
origin. The horizontal
line is called the x-axis,
and the vertical line is
the y-axis.

Coordinate Plane: Points
Each point of the plane is identified by a pair of
numbers (a,b). The first number tells the number
of units from the point to the y-axis. The second
tells the number of units from the point to the xaxis.

Linear Equation
An equation that can be put in the form
cx + dy = e
(c, d, e constants)
is called a linear equation in x and y.

Standard Form of Linear Equation
The standard form of a linear equation is
y = mx + b
(m, b constants)
if y can be solved for, or
x=a
(a constant)
if y does not appear in the equation.

Intercepts
x-intercept: a point on the graph that has a ycoordinate of 0. This corresponds to a point
where the graph intersects the x-axis.
y-intercept: the point on the graph that has a xcoordinate of 0. This corresponds to the point
where the graph intersects the y-axis.

Graph of y = mx + b
To graph the equation y = mx + b:
1. Plot the y-intercept (0,b).
2. Plot some other point. [The most convenient
choice is often the x-intercept.]
3. Draw a line through the two points.

Graph of x > a or x < a
The graph of the inequality
 x > a consists of all points to the right of and
on the vertical line x = a;
 x < a consists of all points to the left of and on
the vertical line x = a.
We will display the graph by crossing out the
portion of the plane not a part of the solution.

Graph of y > mx + b or y < mx + b
To graph the inequality, y > mx + b or
y < mx + b:
1. Draw the graph of y = mx + b.
2. Throw away, that is, “cross out,” the portion of
the plane not satisfying the inequality. The graph
of y > mx + b consists of all points above or on
the line. The graph of y < mx + b consists of all
points below or on the line.

Solve y = mx + b and y = nx + c
To determine the coordinates of the point of
intersection of two lines
y = mx + b and y = nx + c
1. Set y = mx + b = nx + c and solve for x. This
is the x-coordinate of the point.
2. Substitute the value obtained for x into either
equation and solve for y. This is the y-coordinate
of the point.

Example Geometric Definition of Slope
Use the geometric definition of slope to find the
slope of y = 6x - 9.
Let x = 0. Then y = 6(0) - 9 = -9.

Let x = 2. Then y = 6(2) - 9 = 3.

Steepness Property
Steepness Property Let the line L have slope
m. If we start at any point on the line and move 1
unit to the right, then we must move m units
vertically in order to return to the line. (Of
course, if m is positive, then we move up; and if
m is negative, we move down.)

Example Steepness Property
Use the steepness property to graph
y = -4x + 3.
The slope is m = -4.
A point on the line is (0,3).
If you move to the right 1
unit to x = 1, y must move
down 4 units to y = 3 - 4 = -1.

Point-Slope Formula
The equation of the
straight line through the point (x1,y1) and having
slope m is given by
y - y1 = m(x - x1).

Perpendicular Property
Perpendicular Property When two lines are
perpendicular, their slopes are negative
reciprocals of one another. That is, if two lines
with slopes m and n are perpendicular to one
another, then
m = -1/n.
Conversely, if two lines have slopes that are
negative reciprocals of one another, they are
perpendicular.

32 of 71
Example Perpendicular Property
Find the equation of the line through the point
(3,-5) that is perpendicular to the line whose
equation is 2x + 4y = 7.
The slope of the given line is -1/2.
The slope of the desired line is -(-2/1) = 2.
Therefore, y -(-5) = 2(x - 3) or
y = 2x – 11.

Parallel Property
Parallel Property
Parallel lines have the
same slope. Conversely, if two lines have the
same slope, they are parallel.

Copyright © 2010 Pearson Education, Inc.
34 of 71
Example Parallel Property
Find the equation of the line through the point
(3,-5) that is parallel to the line whose
equation is 2x + 4y = 7.
The slope of the given line is -1/2.
The slope of the desired line is -1/2.
Therefore, y -(-5) = (-1/2)(x - 3) or
y = (-1/2)x - 7/2.
