Q
decide if a point is on a line
A
y= 3x -1
2= 3 x 1 -1
2= 2
LHS=RHS if LHS =/ RHS then not on the
line.
answer: (1,2) lies on the line y= 3x -1
2
Q
find rule using a table
A
When there is a zero and its number:
y= mx + c
When there isnt a zero
you pick the smallest pair 1,5 1=x 5=y
look at how much each pair pluses or minuses by and take the bottom number (+4) and times it by the top number (+1)
5= 4 times 1 + c
5= 4 + c
1= c
y = mx + c
y = 4x + 1

Q
Equation of a line (linear function)
A
m = rise/run - gradient
y = mx + c
c = climb = the side length
