This is a lesson that introduces kids to the concepts of slope and y-intercept as they relate to multiplicative and additive relationships.

Determine SlopeMathematics Instructional Plans (MIPs) help teachers align instruction with the 2016 Mathematics Standards of Learning (SOL) by providing examples of how the knowledge, skills and processes found in the SOL and curriculum framework can be presented to students in the classroom.

In Module 4, students extend what they already know about unit rates and proportional relationships to linear equations and their graphs. Students understand the connections between proportional relationships, lines, and linear equations in this module. Also, students learn to apply the skills they acquired in Grades 6 and 7 with respect to symbolic notation and properties of equality to transcribe and solve equations in one variable and then in two variables.
