Equation of Lines and Curves

Learners study the mathematical representations of straight lines and basic curves on a graph. This includes identifying gradients, intercepts, and plotting equations like y = mx + c and quadratic equations. Real-world connections include modelling relationships in science and economics.

Learning Outcomes:

The learner should be able to:

• Determine and interpret the gradient and intercepts of a line.
• Plot equations of lines and curves.
• Use equations to represent and solve real-life relationships.

• form linear equations with given points.
• draw the graph of a line given its equation.
