TEKS Math: 8.5.A

(A) Represent linear proportional situations with tables, graphs, and equations in the form of y = kx

8.5.B

(B) Represent linear non-proportional situations with tables, graphs, and equations in the form of y = mx + b, where b ≠ 0

CCSS Math: 8.EE.6

8.EE.6 Use similar triangles to explain why the slope m is the same between any two distinct points on a non-vertical line in the coordinate plane; derive the equation y = mx for a line through the origin and the equation y = mx + b for a line intercepting the vertical axis at b.
