1-1 Equations of Lines (Notes) PDF

The document discusses equations of lines. It provides three common forms for writing the equation of a line: slope-intercept form, point-slope form, and standard form. It gives examples of writing the equation when given the slope and y-intercept, a point and slope, and two points. Students are then asked to write equations of lines given descriptions, and to match line equations to their graphs.
