Linear Functions

Description

This image shows a variation of the previous example, now with a line having a negative slope of -2 and crossing the y-axis at (0, -2). It demonstrates how to use the point-slope form with negative slopes and y-intercepts.

By using this visual aid, teachers can help students understand how the point-slope form accommodates negative values. This image is particularly useful for expanding students' understanding of the form's versatility.

Teachers can use this image to reinforce the concept by saying: "Here's another example using the point-slope form. This time, we have a negative slope and a negative y-intercept. When you use the point-slope form, you simply plug in the values of the slope and coordinates, whether they're positive or negative. How does this affect the appearance of the line on the graph?"
