LINEAR EQUATIONS

BY PIERCE LEMASTER

WHAT IS A LINEAR EQUATION?

  • A linear equation is an equation for a straight line
  • Ex. Y=2x+1

HOW DO YOU GRAPH A LINEAR EQUATION?

YOU CAN USE THE SLOPE AND Y-INTERCEPT

HOW CAN YOU TELL IF AN EQUATION IS LINEAR?

IF IT IS STRAIGHT

WHAT IS THE SLOPE OF A LINE?

  • The slope of a straight line shows
  • How steep a straight line is

HOW DO YOU FIND THE SLOPE OF A LINE?

HOW DO YOU USE SLOPE TO GRAPH AN EQUATION?

  • You can use slope to graph an equation
  • By starting at one point and using rise over run

WHAT IS SLOPE INTERCEPT FORM?

  • Is a form that is the most frequently
  • Used way to express a line.
  • M= slope b= y intercept

WHAT IS VARIATION?

  • Relationship between two variables
  • In which on is a constant multiple of an other
  • Equation y= kx

WHAT IS CONSTANT PROPORTIONALITY?

  • It's like a equation or ratio
  • Y=kx
