1) Calculate the slope of the line passing through the given points. You may use the slope equation or put the points in a table and find the slope by calculating the y-change and writing it over the x-change. a)

(-1, 4) & (5, 1)

b) (-2, -5) & ( 2, 3)

c) (-3, 4) & (2, 4)

2) Graph the equations either using a table of values or by plotting the y-intercept and using the slope for at least 2 other points.
