Exploring Slope and y-Intercept
Exploring Slope and y-Intercept
Adjust the slope and y-intercept to see how the line changes. Discover how rise and run affect direction and steepness.
Open-ended question 1
How does the graph of the line change when the y-intercept changes from positive to negative? From negative to positive?
