HW for Nov. 17 (Wed)

1) Find out which coordinate (3,2) or (3,1) falls on each line:

y = -4x + 13
5x - 4y = 7

2) Write down four solutions to the equation 3x - y = 5. One example would be (1,-2).Then, connect the coordinates you found and graph the line representing the equation.

3a) Where does the line in #2 appear to cross the y axis? (hint -- tell the x and y coordinate)

3b) What does the slope for the equation in #2 appear to be?
