Putting It All Together

Answer these open ended questions on your own or with others to form deeper math connections.

Tarea 2

How does the graph of the line change when the y-intercept changes from positive to negative? From negative to positive?

Tarea 3

Notice the relationship between the x-intercepts and y-intercepts. What effect would changing the slope have on the relationship between the x- and y-intercepts?
