Learn about graphing linear equations. A linear equation is an equation whose highest exponent on its variable(s) is 1. i.e., linear equations have no exponents on their variables. The graph of a ...

If you understand the definition of a mathematical function, a good way to judge it is that any line drawn parallel to the y-axis intersects with the values in the function’s curve only once. The same ...

Lines which are parallel have the same gradient. For example, \(\text{y = 2x + 1}\) and \(\text{y = 2x - 2}\) will be parallel because they both have a gradient of 2. We want to determine if the lines ...

If we are given equation of the line instead of the graph, we can still determine the gradient. Equations of straight-line graphs are given in the form: \(\text{y = 2x - 1}\) The gradient is 2 and the ...
