Graphing Linear Relations
and Functions
By Kathryn Valle
2-1 Relations and Functions
• A set of ordered pairs forms a relation.– Example: {(2, 4) (0, 3) (4, -2) (-1, -8)}
• The domain is the set of all the first coordinates (x-coordinate) and the range is the set of all the second coordinates (y-coordinate).– Example: domain: {2, 0, 4, -1} and range: {4, 3, -2, -8}
• Mapping shows how each member of the domain and range are paired.– Example: 1 9 4 3
-3 2 1 0 7 -5 -2 -
67
2-1 Relations and Functions (cont.)
• A function is a relation where an element from the domain is paired with only one element from the range.– Example (from mapping example): The first is
a function, but the second is not because the 1 is paired with both the 3 and the 0.
• If you can draw a vertical line everywhere through the graph of a relation and that line only intersects the graph at one point, then you have a function.
2-1 Relations and Functions (cont.)
• A discrete function consists of individual points that are not connected.
• When the domain of a function can be graphed with a smooth line or curve, then the function is called continuous.
2-1 Practice
1. Find the domain and range of the following:a. {(3, 6) (-1, 5) (0, -2)}b. {(4, 1) (1, 0) (3, 1) (1, -2)}
2. Are the following functions? If yes, are they discrete or continuous?
a. {(2, 2) (3, 6) (-2, 0) (0, 5)} c. y = 8x2 + 4b. {(9, 3) (8, -1) (9, 0) (9, 1) (0, -4)}
Answers: 1)a) domain: {3, -1, 0} range: {6, 5, -2} b) domain: {4, 1, 3} range: {1, 0, -2} 2)a) function; discrete b) not a function c) function; continuous
2-2 Linear Equations
• A linear equation is an equation whose graph is a straight line. The standard form of a linear equation is: Ax + By = C, where A, B, and C are all integers and A and B cannot both be 0.
• Linear functions have the form f(x) = mx + b, where m and b are real numbers.
• A constant function has a graph that is a straight, horizontal line. The equation has the form f(x) = b
2-2 Linear Equations (cont.)
• The point on the graph where the line crosses the y-axis is called the y-intercept.– Example: find the y-intercept of 4x – 3y = 6
4(0) – 3y = 6 substitute 0 for x y = -2, so the graph crosses the y-axis at the point (0, -2)
• The point on the graph where the line crosses the x-axis is called the x-intercept.– Example: find the x-intercept of 3x + 5y = 9
3x + 5(0) = 9 substitute 0 for y x = 3, so the graph crosses the x-axis at the point (3, 0)
2-2 Practice
1. Determine if the following are linear equations. If so, write the equation in standard form and determine A, B, and C.
a. 4x + 3y = 10 c. 5 – 3y = 8x
b. x2 + y = 2 d. 1/x + 4y = -5
2. Find the x- and y-intercepts of the following:a. 4x – 3y = -12
b. ½ y + 2 = ½ x
Answers: 1)a) yes; A = 4, B = 3, C = 10 b) no c) yes; A = 8, B = 3, C = 5 d) no
2)a) x-intercept: -3 y-intercept: 4 b) x-intercept: 4 y-intercept: -4
2-3 Slope• The slope of a line is the change in y over
the change in x.• If a line passes through the points (x1, y1)
and (x2, y2), then the slope is given by
m = y2 – y1 , where x1 ≠ x2.
x2 – x1
• In an equation with the from y = mx + b, m is the slope and b is the y-intercept.
• Two lines with the same slope are parallel.• If the product of the slopes of two lines is -1,
then the lines are perpendicular.
2-3 Practice1. Find the slope of the following:
a. (-2, 4) (3, -6) d. (-1, 8) (14, 8)
b. (3.5, -2) (0, -16) e. 12x + 3y – 6 = 0
c. y = 3x + b f. y = -7
2. Determine whether the following lines are perpendicular or parallel by finding the slope.
a. (4, -2) (6, 0), (7, 3) (6, 2)
b. y = 2x – 3, (6, 6) (4, 7)
Answers: 1)a) -2 b) 4 c) 3 d) 0 e) -4 f) 0 2)a) 1; parallel b) -1; perpendicular
2-4 Writing Linear Equations
• The form y = mx + b is called slope-intercept form, where m is the slope and b is the y-intercept.
• The point-slope form of the equation of a line is y – y1 = m(x – x1). Here (x1, y1) are the coordinates of any point found on that line.
2-4 Writing Linear Equations
• Example: Find the slope-intercept form of the equation passing through the point (-3, 5) with a slope of 2.
y = mx + b
5 = (2)(-3) + b
5 = -6 + b
b = 11
y = 2x + 11
2-4 Writing Linear Equations
• Example: Find the point-slope form of the equation of a line that passes through the points (1, -5) and (0, 4).
m = y2 – y1 y – y1 = m(x – x1)
x2 – x1 y – (-5) = (-1)(x – 1)
m = 4 + 5 y + 5 = -x + 1
0 – 1 y = -x – 4
m = 9
-1
m = -1
2-4 Practice
1. Find the slope-intercept form of the following:a. a line passing through the point (0, 5) with a slope
of -7
b. a line passing through the points (-2, 4) and (3, 14)
2. Find the point-slope form of the following:a. a line passing through the point (-2, 6) with a slope
of 3
b. a line passing through the points (0, -9) and (-2, 1)
Answers: 1)a) y = -7x + 5 b) y = 2x + 8 2)a) y = 3x + 12 b) y = -5x -9
2-5 Modeling Real-World Data Using Scatter Plots
• Plotting points that do not form a straight line forms a scatter plot.
• The line that best represents the points is the best-fit line.
• A prediction equation uses points on the scatter plot to approximate through calculation the equation of the best-fit line.
2-5 Practice
1. Plot the following data. Approximate the best-fit line by creating a prediction equation.

2-6 Special Functions
• Whenever a linear function has the form y = mx + b and b = 0 and m ≠ 0, it is called a direction variation.
• A constant function is a linear function in the form y = mx + b where m = 0.
• An identity function is a linear function in the form y = mx + b where m = 1 and b = 0.
2-6 Special Functions
• Step functions are functions depicted in graphs with open circles which mean that the particular point is not included.– Example:
2-6 Special Functions• A type of step function is the greatest integer
function which is symbolized as [x] and means “the greatest integer not greater than x.”– Examples: [8.2] = 8 [3.9] = 3
[5.0] = 5 [7.6] = 7
• An absolute value function is the graph of the function that represents an absolute value.– Examples: |-4| = 4 |-9| = 9

identity, direct variation, absolute value, or greatest integer function

2-7 Linear Inequalities– Use “test points” to determine which side of the line
should be shaded. (2y – 8x ≥ 4)
(-2, 2)
2(2) – 8(-2) ≥ 4
4 – (-16) ≥ 4
20 ≥ 4 true
(0, 0)
2(0) – 8(0) ≥ 4
0 – 0 ≥ 4
0 ≥ 4 false
– So we shade the side of the line that includes the “true” point, (-2, 2)
