Linear Equations Foldable Instructions

Step 1: Fold your piece of paper like a hotdog.Step 2: Unfold.Step 3: Fold your paper like a hamburger.Step 4: Fold your paper two more times in the same direction, making 4 equal sections.

Cutting your Foldable… CUT along the RED LINES ONLY!

Filling in the FRONT of the Foldable…

GIVEN2 points on a line,

and you are looking for slope

GIVEN• The slope and y-

intercept• The slope and a point

GIVENThe slope and a point

GIVENAn equation to

convert into standard form

Filling in the INSIDE LEFT…SLOPE FORMULA

y2 – y1 = m = rise x2 – x1 run

SLOPE INTERCEPT FORM

y = mx + b

POINT SLOPE FORM

y2 – y1 = m (x2 – x1)

STANDARD FORM

Ax + By = C

“A” must be positive and a non-fraction

Filling in the INSIDE RIGHT…Example:

(-6, 7) and (-4, 11)

Example: 1m = ¼ and b = -5

Example: 2m = -3 and (4, -2)

Example:m = ½ and (-8, 2)

Example: 1½ x + 8y = 12

Example: 23y = 4x + 9

After you have written the examples, SOLVE!!!
