1 Draw a number plane extending from - 4 to 4 on both axes then plot and label these
points.
6 Find the rule for this graph by first constructing a table of (x , y) values. Write the
rule in words.
7 Find the area of these shapes by addition or subtraction
Use the graph of y = 2x + 1 shown here to
solve each of the following equations:
a 2x + 1 = 5
b 2x + 1 = 0
c 2x + 1 = - 4
d Write the solution (x , y ) that is true for both lines and show that it satisfies both line
equations.
10 The initial volume of water in a dish in the sun is 300 mL. The water evaporates and
the volume decreases by 50 mL per hour for 6 hours.
a Draw a table of values using t for time in hours and V for volume in millilitres.
b Draw a graph by plotting the points given in the table in part a .
c Write a rule linking V with t .
d Use your rule to fi nd the volume of water in the dish after 4.2 hours in the sun.
e Use your rule to fi nd the time taken for the volume to reach 75 mL.
SAME The point lies on the line NOT THE SAME The point does not lie on the
line
