Finding the Equation of a Line A rule must be true for every pair of coordinates (x, y) in a table or graph. coefficient of x constant y= □×x+ □ □ □ Consider a linear rule of the form y = ×x+. The coefficient of x will be the increase in y as x increases by 1. If there is a decrease in y, then the coefficient will be negative.

Intersection of Lines Solve the equation 4 - x = 2 x + 1.
For each of these graphs write down the coordinates of the point of intersection (i. e. the point where the lines cross over each other).
Non-Linear Relationships a Use this graph of y = x 2 to solve the following equations. b Explain why there are two solutions to each of the equations in question a above. c Give one reason why the graph of y = x 2 does not give a solution to the equation x 2 = -9. d Graph y = x + 2 and y = x 2 on the same screen and graphically solve x 2 = x + 2 by finding the x values of the points of intersection.
