Identify rise/run (m) as slope and identify the coordinates of the y-intercept.
Clarifications:
Essential Understandings
Concrete:
- Indicate the point on a line that crosses the y-axis.
- Describe the rate of change qualitatively (e.g., steep = rapidity of change). (E.g., compare the incline of an escalator to the incline of a wheelchair ramp).
- Count the distance up/down between two points on the coordinate plane (rise).
- Count the distance to the right, between two points on the coordinate plane (run).
- Understand the following concepts and vocabulary: x-axis, y-axis, x-intercept, y-intercept, line, rise, fall, slope, rate of change.
- Interpret/define a line graph with coordinates for multiple points.
- Identify coordinates (points) on a graph.

Cluster:
Use functions to model relationships between quantities. (Major Cluster) :
Clusters should not be sorted from Major to Supporting and then taught in that order. To do so would strip the coherence of the mathematical ideas and miss the opportunity to enhance the major work of the grade with the supporting clusters.
