Translations of Linear Functions

Math scholars explore properties of linear functions. For this algebra lesson, learners solve word problems using algebraic symbols. They solve quadratic and linear equations using algebraic skills.

Time for a shift in thinking! Learners examine translations of linear functions. They use function notation to describe the translation and make connections to the graph.

Progress from proportional relationships to linear functions. Pupils first review concepts of proportionality covered in earlier grades. They then extend these concepts to linear functions, such as determining the slope of a line using...

Students calculate the slope of a line. In this algebra lesson, students calculate the slope of a line given two sets of points. They create a table of values to help them graph a linear equation. They use the slope and intercept to draw...

Students use the graphing calculator to input data, set an appropriate window for the domain and range, and make predictions about unknown quantities in linear functions.

Determining relationships is all part of algebra and functions. Your mathematicians will decide the type of relationship between airports and population and translate what the slope and y-intercept represent. The problem is multiple...

Students find the slope and equation of a line. In this algebra lesson, students are able to graph lines given a table of values and are able to derive the slope and intercept given an equation. They evaluate coordinate pairs and...

Positioned inside the framework of linear and exponential functions, this lesson is more of an investigation into the effects of changing variables and constants inside an expression. The author takes familiar formulas, those for...

Using rates from a rental car company, young mathematicians graph data, explore linear relationships, and discuss the role of slope and the y-intercept. This lesson allows for the discussion of independent and dependent variables, as...

Pupils explore the concept of linear functions. In this linear functions lesson, students translate linear functions from tables to graphs to equations. Pupils use an applet to write a function rule for a linear function in English, as...
