David Huang introduces linear functions, focusing on the slope intercept form y=mx+b. He explains the components of the form, including coordinates, slope, and y-intercept. Examples are provided to illustrate the concept, and methods for converting equations to slope intercept form are discussed. The video also covers graphing linear functions and addresses special cases like y=3. The lesson concludes with a summary of key points.
