Minimize Slope

Directions: Given the point (3,5), use digits 1-9, at most one time, to find a point (__, __) that minimizes the slope of the line that passes through the two points. The slope cannot be undefined. Source: Nanette Johnson (Problem Based on Andrew Constantinescu’s Problem) and Andrew Constantinescu

Write a Linear Function

Directions: Using the digits 1 through 8 [You will use each number only once, except for one number that will be used twice in the same coordinate point. i.e.(1,1), (2,2), (3,3), (4,4), (5,5), (6,6), (7,7) or (8,8)], find three coordinate points that lie on the same line. Write the equation of the line represented by the three points and have …

Functions

Directions: List 2 points form a line that satisfies the following (you can use numbers 0-5, but you can only use a number once). Write the equation of the line represented by the points: a) Its rate of change must be larger than 2 b) Its y-intercept must be smaller than 3 c) It must share a point with the …
