The Algebra Lab Way
How to play
Each group of 2 will get 2 cards (face-down) Dealer will deal (face-up) cards for the groups to choose
from. An algebra problem will be presented to the class. Once
you and your partner think you have the right answer, bring it (paper ONLY) to Mr. Schuler to check. If the answer is correct, you may choose a card to add to your hand. If your answer is incorrect, return to your group and try again.
Repeat for Questions B and C. Question D will be played so that the groups can “trade-in” a card to try to better their hand.
Winner is determined by the best poker hand at the end of 4 questions.

(2, -3) and (-2, 5)
Question 1B
Write the standard form of an equation of the line that passes through the given point and has the given slope.
(1, -4) and m=-3
Question 1C
Write an equation in standard form of a line with the given slope and y-intercept.
m=½ and b=-1
Question 1D

Question 2A
Graph the following line using the slope and y-intercept:
y x 4
53
Question 2B
Graph the following line using the point and slope:
y – 6 = -3(x – 2)
Question 2C
Find the x and y intercepts of the line, then graph the line:
3x – 2y = 12
Question 2D
Solve for y, then use the slope and y-intercept to graph the line:
x – 2y = -8
