Learning Objectives
- The three forms of the equation for a line: slope-intercept form, point-slope form, and standard form
- The basic properties of \(y=x\), the parent linear function, including the graph, domain, range, end behavior, slope, and -intercept.
- The four types of linear graphs (a positive slope, a negative slope, a horizontal line, and a vertical line) and the properties of their graphs including the domain, range, and end behavior and whether the graph is increasing or decreasing.
- Writing the equation of a line through two given points
