Equations of linear graphs
Understand and derive the equation of a straight line represented as y = mx + c. Questions may involve using or identifying equations in the forms y = mx + c or x = k, determining the equation from a given graph, or finding the gradient and y-intercept from an equation, such as identifying the gradient and y-intercept from y = 6x + 3. Students should provide equations of a line in their simplest form.
