Explain how the slope-intercept form of the equation of a line might make graphing the line easier than making a table of values. When might it not be easier?

Question

anonymous · Answer

Slope intercept gives you the slope and the y-intercept. So all you need to do to graph it is plot your y-intercept, then use the slope to find one point other point and connect the dots. The only time I can possible think that slope-intercept is not feasible is when the line is not "linear" or in other words is not a straight line. Someone else might have a better answer.
