The Math Forum: Graphing Linear Functions

In this linear function worksheet, students use tables to find the values of functions. They graph linear functions and explore the significance of the coordinates. This two-page worksheet contains 4 multi-step problems. Graph paper is...

Keep your mathematicians engaged using this group linear functions activity. Each of ten groups receives two graphs with both an image and equation, as well as a "who has" phrase to call out the next graph. Scholars stay on their toes as...

High schoolers determine the linear equations of the density of water and oil by collecting data on the mass of various volumes of each liquid. They construct scatter plots from the data and use these to write the linear equations for...

Use this graphing linear functions worksheet to have learners graph three linear equations. They use a table of values, the intercept method, and slope-intercept form to graph three functions.

High schoolers explore the concept of linear equations.  For this linear equations worksheet, students graph linear equations using tables of values.  High schoolers graph 16 linear equations.

Using this resource, scholars develop graphs that model situations by showing change over time. They answer 15 questions based on information from charts that show growth in weight. They extend the concepts to an assessment section of...

Bring the video in tow when studying linear functions. Young pupils learn to apply linear functions to real-world contexts by watching a short instructional video. Given information about the cost of hiring a tow company, they create a...

Extending his asymptotes lesson from the previous video, Sal shows viewers another example of graphing rational functions. This video is shorter than the previous one and could be shown in a single class session.

Is it possible to tell if a table of values represents a linear function or a nonlinear function? One way is to graph the ordered pairs to see if it makes a straight line. But, take a look at the rate of change in the table. If the rate...

In this graphing linear equations instructional activity, students plot 22 lines on their coordinate grids. When directions are followed carefully, the result is a picture.
