Review: Linear Func.ons

Linear func.ons have a constant rate of change. next value, ADD the common dierence. To get the The common difference is the slope. y = 5 + 2x

To create the equa.on of a line

You need the slope and a point on the line. y - y0 = m ( x - x0 ) To get the slope, you need two points.

September 30, 2013

Create the equa.on of the line which goes through the points (2, 7) and (5, 11)
