Linear Model and Rates of Change: Engr. Cynthia V. Plaza Cea Faculty

The document discusses linear models and rates of change. It covers finding the slope of a line passing through two points, writing equations of lines given a point and slope, interpreting slope as a ratio or rate of change, sketching graphs of linear equations, and writing equations of lines parallel or perpendicular to a given line. The learning objectives are to calculate slope, write equations of lines, interpret slope as a ratio or rate, sketch linear graphs, and write equations of parallel and perpendicular lines.

LINEAR MODEL AND RATES OF

CHANGE
ENGR. CYNTHIA V. PLAZA
CEA FACULTY
LEARNING OBJECTIVES
• FIND THE SLOPE OF A LINE PASSING THROUGH
TWO POINTS
• WRITE THE EQUATION OF A LINE WITH A GIVEN
POINT AND SLOPE
• INTERPRET SLOPE AS A RATIO OR AS A RATE IN A
REAL-LIFE APPLICATION
• SKETCH THE GRAPH OF A LINEAR EQUATION IN
SLOPE-INTERCEPT FORM
• WRITE EQUATIONS OF LINES THAT ARE PARALLEL
OR PERPENDICULAR TO A GIVEN LINE
THE SLOPE OF A LINE
THE SLOPE OF A LINE
EQUATIONS OF LINES
Any two points on a nonvertical line can be used to
calculate its slope. This can be verified from similar
triangles.
Finding an Equation of a Line
Find an equation of the line that has a slope of 3 and passes through the
point (1, - 2)
RATIOS AND RATES OF CHANGE
The slope of a line can be interpreted as either a ratio
or a rate. If the x- and y-axes have the same unit of
measure, the slope has no units and is a ratio. If the
x- and y-axes have different units of measure, the
slope is a rate of change.
GRAPHING LINEAR MODELS

Sketching Lines in the Plane


GRAPHING LINEAR MODELS
Parallel and Perpendicular Lines
Finding Parallel and Perpendicular Lines
Find the general forms of the equations of the line that
pass through the point (2,-1) and are
a. parallel to the line 2x – 3y = 5
b. perpendicular to the line 2x – 3y = 5
