Problem 1 Got It? Now use the embedded Desmos graphing utility below to plot the same data. 

Click the + button and add a table.
Input the hours from the table into the x₁ column.
Input the test scores from the table into the y₁ column.
Zoom and pan your graph to establish a suitable viewing window. (You may use the wrench button for fine tuning.)
Take a screenshot of your scatterplot.

Review Lesson 2-3: Graph the following linear equations in the indicated colors on the same coordinate plane using the embedded graphing utility. Zoom and pan your graph to leave an appropriate scale and viewing window that includes all three lines.

We have released a new and improved Graphing question type! Students will no longer be able to answer this question.

Review Lesson 2-4: Match each slope/point pair with its equation written in standard form.

slope = 2; (2, 6)
slope = -1; (-3, 3)
slope = 0; (0, 2)

-2x + y = 2
y = 2
x + y = 0
