Graphing Linear Equations
SECTION 4.2
Definitions
Linear Equations
An equation that can be written in the form
Ax + By = C, where A and B are not both zero
(A, B, and C are real numbers).
Solution of an Equation
An ordered pair (x, y) that makes the equation
true.
Function Form (aka Slope-Intercept Form)
A two variable equation where y is by itself on one
side of the equation.
Examples
Decide whether the ordered pair is a solution
of the equation.
1. x + 5y = 3
a. (-2, 1) b. (4, -1)
Examples
2. 2x + y = 8
a. (2, 2) b. (3, 2)
Examples
3. y - x = 2
a. (-1, 1) b. (6, 8)
Examples
4. y =-8
a. (-8, 0) b. (0, -8)
Examples
Rewrite the equation in function form.
5. 4x + y = -3
Examples
Rewrite the equation in function form.
6. x - y = 7
Examples
Rewrite the equation in function form.
7. 2x + y = 10
Examples
Rewrite the equation in function form.
8. 5x = y - 2
Examples
Rewrite the equation in function form.
9. x - 2y = 5
Examples
Rewrite the equation in function form.
10. 2y - 4x = 8
Examples
Rewrite the equation in function form.
11. 7x - 5y = 25
