    Study Notes

    Mathematics Module 4: Graphing Linear Equations

    • Topic: Graphing linear equations given two points, x- and y-intercepts, and slope and a point on the line. Also, describing the graph of linear equations.
    • Target Audience: Grade 8 Students
    • Module Focus: This module guides students through methods to graph equations.
    • Methods: Graphing linear equations can be done by plotting given two points, using x- and y-intercepts, or using the slope and a point on the line.
    • Learning Outcomes: Students will gain skills in graphing linear equations, identifying x-and y-intercepts, and interpreting the slope of a line.
    • Important Concepts: Slope-intercept form (y = mx + b) is key. Slope indicates the direction and steepness of a line. Y-intercept is the point where the line crosses the y-axis. X-intercept is the point where the line crosses the x-axis.
