Use the word bank to fill in the blanks. A equation whose graph produces a straight (non-linear) line is called Linear Equation. Any point on the line is a solution to the equation. When graphing a linear equation using a table of points, you plug in the x-value to solve for your y-value. Once the table of points is complete, plot the points on the graph and draw the line. Each line that you graph should be a straight line. Determine whether each graph represents a linear or non-linear equation. Click on the circle on each graph and type the word linear or non-linear in each text box. Make sure to type in the textbox exactly as show in the bold and underlined word and spell correctly! linear linear non-linear non-linear non-linear non-linear linear linear Sort each equation in the proper category. Looking at the linear equation, determine whether the equation will produce a slanted line, horizontal line or vertical line. Slanted Line y = -x + 3 y = ½x - 1 y = x + 4 y = 2x + 6 Horizontal Line y = 1 y = -4 y = 1.5 Vertical Line x = -9 x = ¼ x = 1 Graph the linear equation. Complete the table, plot the points from the table and graph the line.Remember, if your points don't produce a straight line.. you are doing something wrong! Graph the linear equation. Complete the table, plot the points from the table and graph the line.Remember, if your points don't produce a straight line.. you are doing something wrong! Graph the linear equation. Complete the table, plot the points from the table and graph the line.Remember, if your points don't produce a straight line.. you are doing something wrong! Graph the linear equation.
