SWBAT graph linear equations using a table of
values
Tuesday, 11/30/10

• Agenda
• WU (10 min)
• Notes on linear equations w/ two practice
  problems (30 min)
• Warm-Up
• Using a red pen, correct the equations test
  problems you got wrong. Do the corrections on
  your test (no need to explain)
• Set up your Cornell Notes. Topic is Graphing
  Linear Equations
• Cut a piece of graph paper into 4 squares.
• HW2 Graphing Linear Equations

Graphing linear equations

• To graph a linear equation you can use
• 1.) Table of values (todays lesson)
• 2.) Intercepts (next project)
• 3.) Slope intercept form (y mx b) (next
  project)

What is a Linear Equation?
A linear equation is an equation whose graph is a
LINE.
Using a graph paper square sketch a line with a
negative slope.
6
What is a Linear Equation?
The equations we will be graphing have two
variables, x and y.
For example,
A solution to the equation is any ordered pair (x
, y) that makes the equation true.
The ordered pair (3 , 2) is a solution since,
If we were to plot all these ordered pairs on a
graph, we would be graphing a line.

Ex 2 Graph -1/2x y -3 using a table of values
Step 1 Solve for y
-1/2x y -3 (Add 1/2x from both sides) y
1/2x 3

Ex 2 Graph -1/2x y -3 using a table of values
Step 2 Make a Table of Values
x 1/2x 3 y (x, y)

Ex. 3 Graph x 2y 5
First Step Solve for y (write y as a function
of x)
x 2y 5 2y -x 5

Second Step Make a Table of Values
x y (x, y)
-2 -3.5 (-2, -3.5)
-1 -3 (-1, -3)
0 -2.5 (0, -2.5)
1 -2 (1, -2)
2 -1.5 (2, -1.5)

Graphing Horizontal Vertical Lines
When you are asked to graph a line, and there is
only ONE variable in the equation, the line will
either be vertical or horizontal.
Graph x 3
Since there are no yvalues in this equation, x
is always 3 and y can be any other real number.
y 2
Graph y 2
Since there are no xvalues in this equation, y
is always 2 and x can be any other real number.
x 3

SWBAT learn about high school credits, required
classes, and credits
Thurs, 12/2/10

• Agenda
• Quiz (5 min)
• Guest speaker Ms. Leary (40 min)
• Warm Up QUIZ On graph paper
• 1.) Graph 3x y 4 (Hint solve for y first)
  
• 2.) Graph x -6
• 3.) Graph y 1
• HW2 Graphing Linear Equations (both sides)

Graph x -6
Since there are no yvalues in this equation, x
is always -6 and y can be any other real number.
y 1
Graph y 1
Since there are no xvalues in this equation, y
is always 1 and x can be any other real number.
x -6
