About this worksheet

In y = mx + b, m is the slope and b is where the line crosses the y-axis. Reading a graph means finding b first, then counting the rise and run between two lattice points to get m.

Teaching tip

For graph questions, ask students to check their equation with a second point on the line before moving on.
