Equations of linear graphs
Interpret and derive the equation of a straight line from various forms, such as ax + by = c and y = mx + c, as well as from a given graph. This includes determining the gradient and y-intercept from an equation, for example, finding the gradient and y-intercept for the equation 5x + 4y = 8. Ensure that equations of a line are presented in fully simplified form.
