The Point-Slope Form

Description

In this example, we explore finding the equation of a line with a slope of -1 passing through the point (5, 2). Applying the point-slope formula y - y1 = m(x - x1), we substitute the given values to obtain y - 2 = -(x - 5). After simplification, the final equation of the line is y = -x + 7.

Promethean Flipchart: Algebra Nspirations: Systems of Equations

Written and hosted by internationally acclaimed math educator Dr. Monica Neagoy, this video introduces students to systems of linear equations in two or three unknowns. To solve these systems, the host illustrates a variety of methods: four involve the TI-Nspire (spreadsheet, graphs and geometry, matrices and nSolve) and two are the classic algebraic methods known as substitution and elimination, also called the linear combinations method. The video ends with a summary of the three possible types of solutions. Concepts explored: equations, linear equations, linear systems Note: The download for this resources is the Promethean Flipchart.
