Graphing Notes

This document provides instructions for graphing linear functions from their equations in three different ways: using a table of values, using slope and y-intercept, or connecting plotted points. The methods involve creating a table of x and y values from the equation, identifying the slope and y-intercept, and plotting points to connect into a line graph with the original equation written on it.

Graphing Linear Functions, Given the Equation


Using a Table
1. Create a table of values:
- Choose x-values (such as 0, 1, 2, 3)
- Calculate the associated y values
2. Graph the ordered pairs.
3. Connect the line using a ruler, extending and
adding arrows. Write the equation on the line.

Graphing Linear Functions, Given the Equation


Using Slope and Y-Intercept
1. Identify and plot the y-intercept from the
equation
2. Plot additional points using the slope
*If the slope is a whole number, make it a fraction
by putting a 1 underneath it*
3. Connect the line using a ruler, extending and
adding arrows
4. Write the equation on the line
