II. CONTENT Graphing Linear equations in two variables
Graph each linear equation that passes through the given pair of
points. Use graph paper.
Example 1:
Graph the linear equation y=2x-3.
Solution:
You may assign any two arbitrary values of x, say 0 and 1 and
then solve for the corresponding value of y.
By substitution,
y=2 x−3
y=2 ( 0 )−3
y=0−3
y=−3
When x=1
y=2 x−3
y=2 ( 1 )−3
y=2−3
y=−1
Example 2
Graph the linear equation y=2x-3
Solution
To find the x-intercept of a line given its equation, let y=0, then
solve for x.
To find the y-intercept, let x=0, then solve for y
0=2x-3 (Substitution)
0+(-2x) 2x-3 + (-2x) (Inverse property for addition)
0-2x=2x-3-2x (Distributive Property)
0-2x=2x-2x-3 (Commutative property)
0-2x=(2x-2x)-3 (Associative Property of Addition)
0-2x=0-3 (Simplified)
-2X=-3 (Identity Property for Addition)
½ (-2x) =½ (-3) (Multiplication Property)
x=3/2
Hence, the x-intercept is 3/2. In symbol, a=3/2, then the point in the
x-axis is (3/2, 0)
Graphing linear equation can also be done using the slope and
one point.
Example 3
Graph the line whose slope is 2 and contains the point (-1, -5)
Solution:
3. Starting at the given point (-1, -5), count out the rise (2 units
up) and run
(1 unit to the right) to mark the second point. (Note that the
slope is positive)
4. Draw a line passing the points.
C. Engagement
Graph each linear equation given slope m and a point, then answer
the questions that follow. Use graph paper.
