Linear Models

Recall that there are three common ways to represent a linear equation:

• Gradient-intercept form:

• Point-gradient form:

• Standard or general form:

variable.
ii. Sketch its graph on an appropriate domain.

a) The circumference C of a circle in terms of its radius r.


b) The currency conversion between US$ d and euros e. One euro is worth US$ 1.02.
c) The price p you pay in Happy Shop in terms of the regular price R if there is a sign that says
“Today you pay 15% less for every single item”.
d) The volume of a certain type of wood in terms of the weight:

Weight W (kg) 0.9 1.8 2.7

2. Describe any similarities in the equations of the four functions.


3. Describe any similarities in the graphs of the four functions.
4. How can you identify a direct variation relationship from a graph, equation, or context?
