Linear equations and systems worksheets Grade 8

Slope, slope-intercept form, writing the equation of a line, and solving systems by substitution and elimination.

  1. Finding slope from two pointsFind the slope of the line through two points: change in y over change in x.
  2. Slope and y-interceptRead the slope and y-intercept from an equation in y = mx + b form.
  3. Slope and intercept from a graphFind the slope and y-intercept of a line from its graph.
  4. Writing the equation of a line from a slope and a pointUse the slope and a point to find b and write y = mx + b.
  5. Writing the equation of a line from two pointsFind the slope from two points, then the y-intercept, and write the equation.
  6. Standard form to slope-intercept formRewrite Ax + By = C as y = mx + b by solving for y.
  7. Solving systems of equations by substitutionSubstitute one equation into the other, solve for x, then find y.
  8. Solving systems of equations by eliminationMultiply so one variable cancels, add the equations, and solve.
