Writing Equations of the form y = mx + b from tables. This is a one-sided notes page on how to write linear equations from tables. There are nine examples. In some of the examples, the y-intercept is missing, so the student needs to extend the pattern in the table to find it. In other examples, points are missing and so there seems to be no pattern. Students can either write a new table to find the missing values to verify that the table does represent a linear situation (this would be the prefe
