Practice Questions

Answer all questions. Show your working in the grid spaces provided.
1.
Plot the graph of y=2x+3 on the grid. Confirm the slope and y-intercept from the graph.
[3 marks]
2.
Using the graph provided (drawn on the grid), find the coordinates of two points on the line and calculate the slope.
[3 marks]
3.
Determine the y-intercept from a line that crosses the y-axis at (0, -4).
[2 marks]
4.
Construct the equation of a line passing through (2, 5) with a slope of -1 on the grid.
[3 marks]
5.
Identify the slope of the line from the graph shown. The line passes through (0, 2) and (4, -2).
[2 marks]
6.
Given a line with equation y = -0.5x + 4, plot this line on the grid. Then, verify the y-intercept from the graph.
[3 marks]
7.
Find the equation of a line passing through points (1, 2) and (3, 6).
[3 marks]
8.
A line on the graph has a slope of 3 and crosses the y-axis at -2. Write its equation.
[2 marks]
9.
Identify an error in this line's equation derived from its graph: y = 0.5x + 5, when the line shown has a y-intercept at 2 and slope 1.
[4 marks]
10.
Given the line y = -2x + 8, draw it on the grid and find the coordinates of the point where it crosses y = 0.
[3 marks]
