A linear equation is drawn as a straight line on a set of axes. To draw the graph we need coordinates. We generate these coordinates by substituting values into the linear equation. STEP 1 - Draw a ...

Data is rarely so uniform and predictable that plotting data points creates a perfectly linear arrangement. Scatter charts might have wildly varying plots that create a seemingly random correlation ...

A mathematical function is a formula that takes an input, x, applies a set of calculations to it, and produces an output called y. By calculating a function at a large number of set intervals, it is ...

Plot points with coordinates where \(x\) and \(y\) are equal. Three points are sufficient, but more can be plotted. Draw a line through the plotted points. If \(x\) is positive, \(y\) is negative. If ...

This is a preview. Log in through your library . Abstract Many data are suitably modeled by functions consisting of straight-line segments. These functions may be called piecewise-linear. Smooth ...
