Mathematics, Grade 8

Learning Standards:

[Integrated] graph proportional relationships, interpreting the unit rate as the slope of the line that models the relationship.[4B]

[Integrated] use data from a table or graph to determine the rate of change or slope and y-intercept in mathematical and real-world problems.[4C]

[Integrated] represent linear non-proportional situations with tables, graphs, and equations in the form of y = mx + b, where b ≠ 0.[5B]

[Integrated] distinguish between proportional and non-proportional situations using tables, graphs, and equations in the form y = kx or y = mx + b, where b ≠ 0.[5F]

[Integrated] write an equation in the form y = mx + b to model a linear relationship between two quantities using verbal, numerical, tabular, and graphical representations.[5I]

Procedures:
