Linear Relationships Practice Test 1

1 Draw a number plane extending from - 4 to 4 on both axes then plot and label these
points.

a) A (2, 3) b) B (0, 4) c) C (- 1, 2.5) d) D (- 3.5, 0) e) E (- 2, - 2.5) f) F (2, - 4)

2 For the rule y = 2x - 1 construct a table and draw a graph.

3 Decide if the points (1, 3) and (- 2, - 4) lie on the graph of y = 3x .

4 Find the rule for this table of values

5 Find the rule for this table of values

6 Find the rule for this graph by first constructing a table of (x , y) values. Write the
rule in words.
7 Find the area of these shapes by addition or subtraction
Use the graph of y = 2x + 1 shown here to
solve each of the following equations:
a 2x + 1 = 5
b 2x + 1 = 0
c 2x + 1 = - 4

8 Use the graph of y = 4 - x and y = 2x + 1, shown here, to answer these questions.

a Write two equations that each have x = - 2 as a solution.

b Write four solutions (x , y ) for the line with equation y = 4 - x .

c Write four solutions (x , y ) for the line with equation y = 2x + 1.

d Write the solution (x , y ) that is true for both lines and show that it satisfies both line
equations.

e Solve the equation 4 - x = 2x + 1.
