Move the sliders and see what happens to the linear equations
1. Set slope (m) to 1 and y intercept (b) to 0 to begin with.
2. Move the y intercept (b) value from 5 to -5. What do you notice about the graph?
3. Set the y intercept (b) value to 0 and move the slope (m) from negative 5 to positive 5. What do you notice about the graph?
4. Write an equation that goes through the point (1,1) with a slope of 2.
5. Write an equation that goes through the point (1,1) withe a y intercept of 4.
