1. 4.1 Coordinates Objective: To plot points and name points in the coordinate plane.
A coordinate plane
is formed by two real number lines that intersect at the origin. (x-axis and y-axis)
is a point in the coordinate plane represented by real numbers. The x-coordinate is the first number. The y-coordinate is the second number. Ex. (3,6)
An ordered pair
(x, y)  (right or left, up or down) How do you tell?

2. Coordinate plane (x, y) y-axis Quadrant II (-, +) Quadrant I (+, +)
Origin
(0,0)
x- axis
Quadrant III
(-, -)
Quadrant IV
(+, -)

3. Plotting points To plot a point: (3,4) Start at (0,0)
Move 3 to the right (positive)
Then 4 up (positive) make a point
Plot these points:
(-2, -4)
(0, 3)
(-1,0)
(6,-2)
(-4, 5)

4. Practice
Name the following points and give the quadrant or axis where they lie. A: B: C: D: A D C B
Plot the following points and label each!!
E (-3, 4) F(-5, 0) G(-3, -1) H(0, 0)

5. The Coordinate Plane Steps to Make a Scatter Plot:
Determine what will be x and y.
x – is in charge, it changes automatically
y – depends on x, is not automatic
Determine units of each axis and label.
Find range of variable
Divide range by number of squares
Always round up to “nice” unit
Plot points.

6. Example Make a Scatter Plot
The age (in years) of seven used cars and the price (in thousands of dollars) paid for the cars are recorded in the table. Make a scatter plot and explain what it indicates.

10. 4.2 Graphing Linear Equations
Objective: To graph linear equations using a table of values.
Note (1) All the Eqs. in Chap 4 refer 2 variable linear Eqs.
(2) The graph of each linear eq. is a LINE
The solution to a linear equation --
is an ordered pair (x, y).
There are many solutions to a linear equation and all of the solutions together form a straight line, 

11. Find out if the ordered pairs are solutions. HOW?
A) -5x – 8y = 15 (-3, 0) B) -2x – 9y = 7 (-1, -1)

12. Graph a line -1 5 3 1 1 x 2x + y = 3 y (x, y) Steps to graph a line5
Steps to graph a line 3
1. Pick three values for x 1
Plug in values for x then solve for y
Solve for y, then evaluate y for all input x
3. Graph the ordered pairs
4. Connect these order pairs.
This should form a straight line!
y = -2x + 3

13. Function form  When an equation is solved for y = -1 1 A) 3x – y = 2
What are the advantages of putting the equation into function form?
Graph the given linear equations.
A) 3x – y = 2
Solve for y: x y
(x, y) -1 1
We select three x values, and evaluate the corresponding y values.

14. Graph the given linear equations.
B) 2x – 2y = 10
Solve for y,
We select three x values, and evaluate the corresponding y values. What are the “good” x values we should select?
The x values should make “nice” y values. (or, no fraction values for y)

15. Make a table of values and graph the following line:
6x – 3y = y = 4x + 1

16. MEMORIZE THESE!!!! It’s easy!
Special Linear Equations
x = # 
always a vertical line
y = # 
always a horizontal line
MEMORIZE THESE!!!! It’s easy!
x = # , label the # on x-axis, then “cut” there
y = # , label the # on y-axis, then “cut” there
Ex 4) y = -3
Ex 5) x = 4
Ex 7) y = 0
Ex 6) x = -2

17. Make a table of values and graph the following line:
y = x = 4

18. Summary
A two variables linear equation represents a line in x-y coordinate plan.
An ordered pair is a solution to a two variable linear equation, then the point represented by the ordered pair is on the line represented by the linear equation, and vice versa.
Remember the two types of special line by an easy way:
x = #  no y  cut x-axis at that #  parallel to y-axis
y = #  no x  cut y-axis at that #  parallel to x-axis

19. Summary When graphing a linear equation, remember the 4 steps:
Pick a few x values
Solve for y, then evaluate y for all input x
Graph ordered pairs
Connect ordered pairs with a line

Where the line or curve crosses the y-axis. This should be written as the point (0, y) . (WHY?)
y-intercept? ( , )
0 3
x-intercept? ( , )
2 0
Note x or y intercept is a point!!!

24. Remember – TWO POINTS CAN MAKE A LINE!
Ex 1) Find the x and y-intercepts
To find the y-intercept; let x = 0 and solve for y.
To find the x-intercept; let y = 0 and solve for x.
6x + 3y = 12
6( 0 ) +3y = 12
6x + 3( 0 ) = 12
3y = 12
6x = 12
y = 4
x = 2
The y intercept is (0, 4)
The x intercept is (2, 0)

25. 1. 2x – y = 4 2. 3y – 2x = -6 You try these:
Calculate the x and y-intercept. Then graph each line.
1. 2x – y = 4
2. 3y – 2x = -6

26. What happens with horizontal and vertical lines?
Find the x and y-intercepts (if possible). Graph each line.
Ex 2) y = 4
Ex 3) x = -1
You can set x = 0 but end with “No solution”  can not find x, or no x-intercept.
You can set y = 0 but end with “No solution”  can not find y, or no y-intercept.
y-int. (0, 4)
x-int. (-1, 0)
Variable x does not show up  no x-intercept  line is parallel to x-axis
Variable y does not show up  no y-intercept  line is parallel to y-axis
