In most cases, the coordinates are written as integers, e.g. (3, 7) or (2, −5),
which are plotted on to the grid.
These points are then ‘joined together’ in a straight line, or smooth curve.
Drawing graphs
Let us plot three points on the function
Note that:
• (0, 1) are the coordinates of the
y-intercept.
• The y-intercept is 1.
one point ‘to the right’
when x = 2,
is a linear function, so
the graph should be a straight line.
1 square is 1 unit x

3. What is the domain of f(x)?

y
7. Solve f(x) = −1
This means: What value
of x gives y = −1?
