1) y = 2x - 3
- y-intercept: (0, -3)
- slope: 2 (rise 2, run 1)
- second point: (1, -1)
2) y = -3x + 2
- y-intercept: (0, 2)
- slope: -3 (rise -3, run 1)
- second point: (1, -1)
3) y = (1/2)x - 5
- y-intercept: (0, -5)
- slope: 1/2 (rise 1, run 2)
- second point: (2, -4)
4) y = (-2/3)x + 4
- y-intercept: (0, 4)
- slope: -2/3 (rise -2, run 3)
- second point: (3, 2)
5) x + y = 4 → y = -x + 4
- y-intercept: (0, 4)
- slope: -1 (rise -1, run 1)
- second point: (1, 3)
6) y = 3
- horizontal line through y = 3
- points: (0, 3), (1, 3), (-1, 3)
