01+-+Graphing+in+Slope-Intercept+Form

__Make a table:__ One method for graphing a line is to use a table. This is most useful when we have an equation in slope-intercept form because we can simply assign a value to the x-coordinate and calculate the corresponding value for the y-coordinate. In this way, we can create a table of ordered pairs and plot them on the coordinate plane.

__Use the slope and intercept:__ Another method for graphing lines when an equation is in slope-intercept form is as follows:
 * 1) Plot the y-intercept on the coordinate plane; that's the point (0, b).
 * 2) Use the slope to find another point (and repeat).
 * 3) Draw a line through the points.
