1. The document discusses various forms of linear equations including standard form (Ax + By = C), slope-intercept form (y = mx + b), and point-slope form (y - y1 = m(x - x1)).
2. It provides examples of transforming linear functions between these forms and discusses how to find the slope and y-intercept of a linear function from its graph.
3. The slope and direction of a linear function's graph is determined by whether its slope is positive or negative. A positive slope produces an upward rising line while a negative slope produces a downward falling line.
2. STANDARD FORM OF LINEAR EQUATION
Ax + By = C
Transform each linear function in standard form.
1. y = -9x + 2
9x + y = 2
2. y = 3/2 – 2x
2 (y = 3/2 – 2x) 2
2y = 3 – 4x
4x + 3y = 3
4. SLOPE – INTERCEPT FORM
y = mx + b
Transform each linear function in slope intercept form. Then,
identify the value of m and b.

8. The Slope, the trends and the graph of
linear function
If the slope is positive, the graph of a linear
function points upward to the right, and the
linear function increases all throughout.

linear function
If the slope is negative, the graph of a linear
function points upward to the left, and the
linear function decreases all throughout.
