Linear equations in slope-intercept form when something changes at a constant rate, like the pattern from the intro activity above, we can write a linear equation to model how it changes. in this activity, you’ll learn how to write linear equations using one form called slope-intercept form. follow your teacher’s instructions to review the formula below and practice writing linear equations.

a) y = 7x + 38
b) y = -15x + 57
c) y = (2/3)x - 6
d) y = -5x
