Writing Linear Equations from Tables and Graphs

The video tutorial covers how to write linear equations from tables and graphs. It explains the concepts of y-intercept and slope, and demonstrates how to find these values from given data. The tutorial includes examples with both whole numbers and decimals, and shows how to analyze graphs to derive equations. The video concludes with tips for practicing these skills.

What is the general form of a linear equation?

• y = a + bx

• y = ab + x

How do you find the y-intercept from a table of values?

• Look for the y value when x is 1

• Look for the x value when y is 1

• Look for the y value when x is 0

• Look for the x value when y is 0

Given the table values where x = 0, y = 4, and the pattern is a decrease of 0.3, what is the equation?

• y = 0.3x - 4

• y = -0.3x + 4

• y = 0.3x + 4

• y = -0.3x - 4

What is the equation if the table shows x = 0, y = 10, and the pattern is an increase of 1?

• y = x + 10

• y = 10x + 1

• y = 1x + 10

• y = 10 + x
