Linear Functions

What do you think a linear function is?

Linear Functions

A linear function is a rule described by a linear equation. The rate of change is constant, and the graph of the equation is a line.

You put something in, you get something out

The function takes in a number, applies a rule to it, and spits out another number

It does the same thing every time

The machine/function applies the same rule to every input every time, and it does it without changing the output
Example: y = 2x

For every input, you can only get 1 output

One input cannot have two or more different outputs

Functions

You put a number into your machine, it does something to that number and it gives you the new number
It does the same thing every time
For every input, you can get only one output
Everything we do in math is functions

Two inputs can have the same output

The important thing is there is only one output PER input

Does this table represent a linear function? Why?

Let's slow it down...

I recognize that there was a lot of information thrown at you during our lesson yesterday! Let's slow it down and take it step by step.

Today you will be reviewing two concepts:

1. Finding the slope and y-intercept from a graph

2. Finding the slope and y-intercept from an equation

By the end of this Quizizz, my hope is that we will feel more confident in these concepts!
