Linear Functions in Standard Form
This 5-page packet guides 8th graders through the standard form of linear functions. It includes worked examples and practice problems for converting to slope-intercept form, finding intercepts, and graphing.
“Create a note guide with worked examples on standard form of linear functions, converting standard form to slope-intercept form, finding x- and y- intercepts from standard form, and graphing from standard form.”
Teacher Guide & Tips
- Use this packet as a 45-minute introduction or review of linear functions in standard form.
- Discussion question: What are the advantages of using standard form versus slope-intercept form for certain problems?
- Scaffold for struggling learners: Encourage students to work through the conversion steps one at a time, checking each step before moving on.
- Extension for advanced learners: Ask students to create their own linear equations in standard form and then convert them to slope-intercept form and graph them.
- Estimated time: 45 minutes
