Ex 1: Graph a Linear Equation Using a Table of Values
Guided Notes
3 key concepts
- 1
To graph a linear equation using a table of values, you can select any x value and substitute it into the equation to find the corresponding y value.
- 2
It is best practice to find at least three points when graphing a line; if the points don't form a line, you know you've made an error.
- 3
After plotting the points from your table of values, draw a line that passes through all the points to represent the graph of the linear equation.
