Algebra 1 – Topic 3

Notes: Standard Form


LT 10: I can graph a linear equation in standard form and identify the key features to
describe mathematical and real-world contexts.
LT 11: I can write a linear equation in standard form from tables, graphs, and verbal
descriptions. I can use representations to make sense of and solve problem situations.

Main Ideas/Questions Notes/Examples


An intercept is the point where a graph crosses an axis.
Vocabulary
x-intercept is the point where the graph crosses the __________ .

y-intercept is the point where the graph crosses the __________ .

Standard Form of a Line

Ax + By = C

Finding
Intercepts x-intercept: an ordered pair

from on the x-axis so (#, 0)

Standard plug-in y = 0 and solve for x.

Form called a “zero” of the function

y-intercept: an ordered pair

on the y-axis so (0, #)

plug-in x = 0 and solve for y.

** Cover 0 value in equation **


Algebra 1 – Topic 3

Example Find the x-intercept of 2x + 7y = 28.

- write solution as an ordered pair: ( ,0)


Find the y-intercept of 2x + 7y = 28.

- write solution as an ordered pair: (0 , )

Practice Find the x-intercept and the y-intercept of the graph of the equation

-3x + 5y = -15

Find the x-intercept and the y-intercept of the graph of the equation

3x - 2y - 8 = 10
Algebra 1 – Topic 3

Graph an Until now, we have used a table of values to graph an equation.

equation from Today, we will use the x & y-intercepts to graph an equation.

Standard Form ** Two points define a line **

1. Find the x-intercept and plot on the x-axis


2. Find the y-intercept and plot on the y-axis
3. Draw the line by connecting the 2 intercepts

Example Graph x + 2y = 4 using x & y-intercepts.

Graph x + 2y = 4 using x & y-intercepts.


Algebra 1 – Topic 3

Graph 6x + 7y = 42 using x & y-intercepts.
