Linear Functions TLW identify linear equations and intercepts.
2
A linear equation is the equation of a line.
The standard form of a linear equation is Ax + By = C * A has to be positive and cannot be a fraction.
3
Examples of linear equations
2x + 4y =8 6y = 3 – x x = 1 -2a + b = 5 Equation is in Ax + By =C form Rewrite with both variables on left side … x + 6y =3 B =0 … x + 0 y =1 Multiply both sides of the equation by -1 … 2a – b = -5 Multiply both sides of the equation by 3 … 4x –y =-21
4
Examples of Nonlinear Equations
The following equations are NOT in the standard form of Ax + By =C: The exponent is 2 There is a radical in the equation Variables are multiplied Variables are divided 4x2 + y = 5 xy + x = 5 s/r + r = 3
5
This IS a linear equation.
Determine whether the equation is a linear equation, if so write it in standard form. y = 5 – 2x y = 5 – 2x Rewrite the equation + 2x + 2x Add 2x to each side 2x + y = 5 Simplify A = 2, B= 1, C=5 This IS a linear equation.
6
Determine whether the equation is a linear equation, if so write it in standard form.
2xy -5y = 6 Since the term 2xy has two variables, the equation cannot be written in the form Ax + By =0. Therefore, this is NOT a linear equation.
7
Determine whether the equation is a linear equation, if so write it in standard form.
Since the term x is raised to the second power, the equation cannot be written in the form Ax + By =0. Therefore, this is NOT a linear equation.
8
This IS a linear equation.
Determine whether the equation is a linear equation, if so write it in standard form. y = 6 – 3x Rewrite the equation y = 6 – 3x Add 3x to each side + 3x + 3x 3x +y = 6 Simplify A = 3, B= 1, C=6 This IS a linear equation.
9
This IS a linear equation.
Determine whether the equation is a linear equation, if so write it in standard form. Multiply everything by the denominator to get rid of the fraction (4) x + 20y = 12 A = 1, B= 20, C=12 This IS a linear equation.

Determine whether the equation is a linear equation, if so write it in standard form.

X and Y intercepts The x coordinate of the point at which the graph of an equation crosses the x –axis is the x- intercept . The y coordinate of the point at which the graph of an equation crosses the y-axis is called the y- intercept. y- intercept (0, y) X- intercept (-x,0)
12
Graph the linear equation using the x- intercept and the y intercept
3x + 2y = 9 To find the x- intercept, let y = 0 Original Equation 3x + 2y = 9 3x + 2(0) = 9 Replace y with 0 3x = 9 Divide each side by 3 x = 3 To find the y- intercept, let x = 0 Original Equation 3x + 2y = 9 3(0) + 2y = 9 Replace x with 0 2y = 9 Divide each side by 2 y = 4.5 Plot the two points and connect them to draw the line.
13
Graph the linear equation using the x- intercept and the y intercept
2x + y = 4 To find the x- intercept, let y = 0 2x + y = 4 Original Equation 2x + (0) = 4 Replace y with 0 Divide each side by 3 2x =4 x = 2 To find the y- intercept, let x = 0 2x + y = 4 Original Equation 2(0) + y = 4 Replace x with 0 Simplify y = 4 Plot the two points and connect them to draw the line.

15
Find the x and y- intercepts of x = 4y – 5
Plug in x = 0 x = 4y - 5 0 = 4y - 5 5 = 4y = y (0, ) is the y-intercept x-intercept: Plug in y = 0 x = 4y - 5 x = 4(0) - 5 x = 0 - 5 x = -5 (-5, 0) is the x-intercept

Find the x and y-intercepts of g(x) = -3x – 1*
Plug in x = 0 g(x) = -3(0) - 1 g(x) = 0 - 1 g(x) = -1 (0, -1) is the x-intercept Plug in y = 0 g(x) = -3x - 1 0 = -3x - 1 1 = -3x = x ( , 0) is the *g(x) is the same as y

Find the x and y-intercepts of 6x - 3y =-18
x-intercept Plug in y = 0 6x - 3y = -18 6x -3(0) = -18 6x - 0 = -18 6x = -18 x = -3 (-3, 0) is the y-intercept Plug in x = 0 6x -3y = -18 6(0) -3y = -18 0 - 3y = -18 -3y = -18 y = 6 (0, 6) is the

Find the x and y-intercepts of x = 3
A vertical line never crosses the y-axis. There is no y-intercept. x-intercept Plug in y = 0. There is no y. Why? x = 3 is a vertical line so x always equals 3. (3, 0) is the x-intercept. x y
19
Find the x and y-intercepts of y = -2
x-intercept Plug in y = 0. y cannot = 0 because y = -2. y = -2 is a horizontal line so it never crosses the x-axis. There is no x-intercept. y-intercept y = -2 is a horizontal line so y always equals -2. (0,-2) is the y-intercept. x y
