GRAPHS OF STRAIGHT LINES This presentation includes the worksheet: “Graphs of straight lines (basic)” available at: www.mathsguru.co.uk
y x TO DESCRIBE THE POSITION OF AN OBJECT WE CAN USE A SET OF AXES. Co-ordinates: (2, 7) 2 along the x-axis, 7 along the y-axis. x = 2, y = 7 Co-ordinates: (-6, 3) -6 along the x-axis, 3 along the y-axis. x = -6, y = 3
y x Every point has an x co-ordinate and a y co-ordinate. x + y = 8 When plotting a graph, we are interested in ALL those points whose co-ordinates satisfy some rule or other. For example, consider ALL those points whose co-ordinates add up to 8. ALWAYS label the graph! x y 0 8 1 7 2 6 3 5 etc. There are billions of such points!
y x We will plot 4 graphs on a single set of axes. Example 1. y = x y = 3x x y x y 0 0 0 0 3 3 6 2 -4 -4 -9 -3 y = 2x y = ½x x y x y 0 0 0 0 4 8 6 3 2 4 -8 -4
y x Example 2. y = x + 2 y = 2x - 3 x y x y 2 0 -3 0 3 1 -1 1 4 2 1 2 y = x - 4 y = 3x - 5 x y x y -5 0 -4 0 -2 1 -3 1 1 2 -2 2
