Introduction: Equations of Linear Functions
Why study equations of linear functions?
In this outcome, we will learn how to write equations for linear functions given different pieces of information, including two points on the line and the graph of the line. We will also identify the equations of horizontal and vertical lines and write linear equations from written information.The topics we will cover in the outcome include:
- Write the equation of a linear function from a graph
- Write the equation for linear functions whose graphs are horizontal and vertical lines
- Write the equation for a linear function from slope given two points
- Write the equation for a linear function given an application
