01.09 Writing the Equation of Line
Warning: There is a checkbox at the bottom of the exam form that you MUST check prior to submitting this exam. Failure to do so may cause your work to be lost.
Question 1 (Multiple Choice Worth 1 points)
Write the equation of the line given by the following graph in standard form.
3x – y = –3
3x – y = 3
–3x + y = –3
–3x – y = 3
Question 2 (Multiple Choice Worth 1 points)
Write the equation of the line that passes through (–1, 5) with a slope of 2 in standard form.
–2x – y = –7
2x – y = –7
2x – y = 11
–2x + y = –11
Question 3 (Multiple Choice Worth 1 points)
Write the equation of the line that passes through (2, 5) with a slope of 3 in point-slope form.
y – 2 = 3(x – 5)
y + 8 = 3(x + 5)
y + 5 = 3(x + 2)
y – 5 = 3(x – 2)
Question 4 (Multiple Choice Worth 1 points)
Write the equation of the line that passes through (2, 4) and (1, –3) in slope-intercept form.
y = 7x – 10
y = 7x + 10
y = 7x + 18
y = 7x – 18
Question 5 (Multiple Choice Worth 2 points)
Write the equation of the line given by the following graph in slope-intercept form.
y = x + 1
y = x – 1
y = x + 6
y = x – 6
Question 6 (Multiple Choice Worth 2 points)
Write the equation of the line that passes through (2, 2) and (6, 3) in standard form.
4x + 4y = 6
x + 4y = 12
4x + 4y = –12
x – 4y = –6
Question 7 (Essay Worth 2 points)
Part 1: Write the equation of the line that passes through the points (–1, –4) and (2, 5) in point-slope form.
Part 2: Using complete sentences, explain whether or not it matters which point is used in the final answer. Also explain why you chose the point you did.
