3-6 Lines in the Coordinate Plane

Warm UpSubstitute the given values of m, x, and y into the equation y = mx + b and solve for b.

1. m = 2, x = 3, and y = 0

Solve each equation for y.

3. y – 6x = 9

2. m = –1, x = 5, and y = –4

b = –6

b = 1

4. 4x – 2y = 8

y = 6x + 9

y = 2x – 4

Vocabulary



The equation of a line can be written in many different forms. The point-slope and slope-intercept forms of a line are equivalent. Because the slope of a vertical line is undefined, these forms cannot be used to write the equation of a vertical line.





Graph each line.

Example 2A: Graphing Lines

The equation is given in the

slope-intercept form, with a

slope of and a y-intercept

of 1. Plot the point (0, 1) and

then rise 1 and run 2 to find

another point. Draw the line

containing the points.

(0, 1)

rise 1

run 2



Graph each line.

Example 2B: Graphing Lines

y – 3 = –2(x + 4)


point-slope form, with a slope

of through the point (–4, 3).

Plot the point (–4, 3) and then

rise –2 and run 1 to find



(–4, 3)

rise –2

run 1



Graph each line.

Example 2C: Graphing Lines

The equation is given in the form

of a horizontal line with a

y-intercept of –3.

The equation tells you that the

y-coordinate of every point on the

line is –3. Draw the horizontal line

through (0, –3).

y = –3

(0, –3)

find another point. Draw the

line containing the points.

Graph each line.

y = –4

The equation is given in the form

of a horizontal line with a

y-intercept of –4.

The equation tells you that the

y-coordinate of every point on the

line is –4. Draw the horizontal line

through (0, –4).

(0, –4)



Example 1A: Writing Equations In Lines

Write the equation of each line in the given form.

the line with slope 6 through (3, –4) in point-slope form

y – y1 = m(x – x1)

y – (–4) = 6(x – 3)

Point-slope form

Substitute 6 for m, 3 for x1, and -4 for y1.



Example 1B: Writing Equations In Lines


the line through (–1, 0) and (1, 2) in slope-intercept form

y = x + 1

Find the slope.

Write in slope-intercept form using m = 1 and b = 1.



Example 1C: Writing Equations In Lines


the line with the x-intercept 3 and y-intercept –5 in point slope form



Check It Out! Example 1a


the line with slope 0 through (4, 6) in slope-intercept form

y = 6

y – y1 = m(x – x1)

y – 6 = 0(x – 4)

Point-slope form

Substitute 0 for m, 4 for x1, and 6 for y1.



Check It Out! Example 1b


the line through (–3, 2) and (1, 2) in point-slope form

y - 2 = 0

Find the slope.

y – y1 = m(x – x1) Point-slope form

Simplify.

Substitute 0 for m, 1 for x1, and 2 for y1.

y – 2 = 0(x – 1)



A system of two linear equations in two variables represents two lines. The lines can be parallel, intersecting, or coinciding. Lines that coincide are the same line, but the equations may be written in different forms.





Determine whether the lines are parallel, intersect, or coincide.

Example 3A: Classifying Pairs of Lines

y = 3x + 7, y = –3x – 4

The lines have different slopes, so they intersect.




Example 3B: Classifying Pairs of Lines

Solve the second equation for y to find the slope-intercept form.

6y = –2x + 12

Both lines have a slope of , and the y-intercepts are

different. So the lines are parallel.




Example 3C: Classifying Pairs of Lines

2y – 4x = 16, y – 10 = 2(x - 1)

Solve both equations for y to find the slope-intercept form.

2y – 4x = 16

Both lines have a slope of 2 and a y-intercept of 8, so they coincide.

2y = 4x + 16

y = 2x + 8

y – 10 = 2(x – 1)

y – 10 = 2x - 2y = 2x + 8



Check It Out! Example 3

Determine whether the lines 3x + 5y = 2 and 3x + 6 = -5y are parallel, intersect, or coincide.

Both lines have the same slopes but different y-intercepts, so the lines are parallel.

Solve both equations for y to find the slope-intercept form.

3x + 5y = 2

5y = –3x + 2

3x + 6 = –5y
