The horizontal line is called the x-axis, and the vertical line is the y-axis.

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.

Finite Mathematics & Its Applications, 10/e by Goldstein/Schneider/Siegel Copyright © 2010 Pearson Education, Inc. 7 of 71 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.

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. Finite Mathematics & Its Applications, 10/e by Goldstein/Schneider/Siegel Copyright © 2010 Pearson Education, Inc. 10 of 71 Graph of y = mx + b To graph the equation 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.

Finite Mathematics & Its Applications, 10/e by Goldstein/Schneider/Siegel Copyright © 2010 Pearson Education, Inc. 24 of 71 Example Slope of y = mx + b Find the slope. y = 6x - 9 m=6 y = -x + 4 m = -1 y=2 m=0 y=x m=1 Finite Mathematics & Its Applications, 10/e by Goldstein/Schneider/Siegel Copyright © 2010 Pearson Education, Inc. 25 of 71 Geometric Definition of Slope Geometric Definition of Slope Let L be a line passing through the points (x1,y1) and (x2,y2) where x1 ≠ x2. Then the slope of L is given by the formula y2 y1 m . x2 x1 Finite Mathematics & Its Applications, 10/e by Goldstein/Schneider/Siegel Copyright © 2010 Pearson Education, Inc. 26 of 71 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. (x1,y1) = (0,-9) Let x = 2. Then y = 6(2) - 9 = 3. (x2,y2) = (2,3) 3 9 12 m 6 20 2 Finite Mathematics & Its Applications, 10/e by Goldstein/Schneider/Siegel Copyright © 2010 Pearson Education, Inc. 27 of 71 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.) Finite Mathematics & Its Applications, 10/e by Goldstein/Schneider/Siegel Copyright © 2010 Pearson Education, Inc. 28 of 71 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. Finite Mathematics & Its Applications, 10/e by Goldstein/Schneider/Siegel y (0,3) x (1,-1) y = -4x + 3 Copyright © 2010 Pearson Education, Inc. 29 of 71 Point-Slope Formula 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). Finite Mathematics & Its Applications, 10/e by Goldstein/Schneider/Siegel Copyright © 2010 Pearson Education, Inc. 30 of 71 Example Point-Slope Formula Find the equation of the line through the point 3 (-1,4) with a slope of . 5 Use the point-slope formula. 3 y 4 x 1 5 3 3 y4 x 5 5 3 17 y x 5 5 Finite Mathematics & Its Applications, 10/e by Goldstein/Schneider/Siegel Copyright © 2010 Pearson Education, Inc. 31 of 71 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. Finite Mathematics & Its Applications, 10/e by Goldstein/Schneider/Siegel Copyright © 2010 Pearson Education, Inc. 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. Finite Mathematics & Its Applications, 10/e by Goldstein/Schneider/Siegel Copyright © 2010 Pearson Education, Inc. 33 of 71 Parallel Property Parallel Property Parallel lines have the same slope. Conversely, if two lines have the same slope, they are parallel. Finite Mathematics & Its Applications, 10/e by Goldstein/Schneider/Siegel 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.
