Connect linear equations, tables, and graphs

Linear functions and graphs · Stage 2

Recognize the pattern

Use the table to find the slope and intercept, then connect to y = mx + b.

Useful ruleAx+By=C ↔ y=mx+b

Try it before reading the solution

Which equation matches the points (0, 3) and (2, 7)?

This teaching example is original and is not an official SAT question.

Reasoning

The slope is (7−3)/(2−0)=2; x=0 gives b=3.

Answer

y = 2x + 3

Ready for adaptive practice

Practice questions remain in English, as on the SAT.
