Plotting linear graphs Going from rule to graph. To sketch a linear graph from a rule, determine two points that satisfy the rule and connect them with a straight line. Two commonly used methods are: ...

The linear function is popular in economics. It is attractive because it is simple and easy to handle mathematically. It has many important applications. Linear functions are those whose graph is a ...

Here are five activities to teach students how to identify linear and nonlinear functions: 1. Graphing Exercises: Graphing is an excellent tool to teach the concept of linear and nonlinear functions ...

Linear functions are used to model a broad range of real-world problems. The ability to solve linear equations and inequalities is an essential skill for analysing these models. This section covers ...

PiecewiseLinearOpt.jl is a JuMP extension for modeling optimization problems containing piecewise linear functions. This package is an accompaniment to a paper entitled Nonconvex piecewise linear ...

Spread the loveWhen it comes to teaching mathematics to students, identifying different types of functions can be a challenging task. Two of the most common types of functions encountered in high ...

Consider the linear function: y = a + bx. b is the slope of the line. Slope means that a unit change in x, the independent variable will result in a change in y by the amount of b. slope = change in y ...
