GRAPHING LINES

TASK 1 Use a given table

Graph each line by first completing the table of values. Remember to write the equation on its line.
x
a y=
2

x 0 4 6

y 0 2 3

b 2x + y = 3

x –2 1 3

y 7 1 -3

TASK 2 Graphing equations

Complete a table of values for each equation.

Draw a set of axes and plot a graph of each equation. You will need squared paper.
a y = 6x 1.
X = 1,2,3
Y = 6,12,18
XY = 1,6 / 2,12 / 3,18

b 2x + 3y = 18 2.
X = 6,3,0
Y = 2,5,6
XY = 6,2 / 3,5 / 0,6

x2 3.
c y
3

X = 17,14,11
Y = 5,4,3
XY = 17,5 / 14,4 / 11,
