3.2 Zeros of Linear Functions
Make sure to have a piece of paper and a pencil!

2
Linear Function
The graph is a line
Parent function is the simplest version: f(x)=x or y=x
The parent then has a family that all look like it (a straight line)
3
Solution of the Equation
Also called the root or the zero
On a graph, it's also called the x-intercept
Makes the equation true
This is the graph:
y=2x+4So: the solution is -2
4
Open Ended
What is the solution to the following equation:
0=−0.5x+25
This graph does not have an x-intercept
- The answer to a graph like this is no solutions
6
Solving without a Graph
If have just the equation, you can also solve it by solving for x
Ex: 0=3x+6
7
Open Ended
Without graphing, what is the solution to the following equation:
0=2x+88
Now It's Your Turn!
The following five questions will be graded as an assignment.
