Card 1Linear Equations

What is a linear equation in two variables? Give the general form.

Answer

A linear equation in two variables is an equation of the form ax + by + c = 0, where x and y are variables, and a, b, c are constants. The graph of such an equation is always a straight line.

Card 2Graph Construction

List the 5 steps to draw the graph of a linear equation ax + by + c = 0.

Answer

1. Make x or y the subject of the equation 2. Give at least 3 suitable values to one variable and find corresponding values of the other 3. Construct a table for different pairs of x and y values 4. P

Card 3Coordinate Axes

What is the equation of the x-axis and y-axis?

Answer

The equation of the x-axis is y = 0 (all points have y-coordinate as 0) The equation of the y-axis is x = 0 (all points have x-coordinate as 0)

Card 4Graph Construction

How many points do you need to draw a straight line? Why do we plot at least 3 points?

Answer

Theoretically, only 2 points are needed to draw a straight line. However, we plot at least 3 points to verify that our calculations are correct and all points lie on the same straight line, ensuring a

Card 5Graph Construction

Draw the graph of 3x + y - 4 = 0. What are three points on this line?

Answer

First, make y the subject: y = -3x + 4 For x = 0: y = 4, point (0, 4) For x = 1: y = 1, point (1, 1) For x = -1: y = 7, point (-1, 7) These three points lie on the line 3x + y - 4 = 0

Card 6Special Lines

What does the graph of x = a (where a is constant) look like?

Answer

The graph of x = a is a straight line parallel to the y-axis, at a distance of 'a' units from the y-axis. All points on this line have the same x-coordinate 'a'.

Card 7Special Lines

What does the graph of y = b (where b is constant) look like?

Answer

The graph of y = b is a straight line parallel to the x-axis, at a distance of 'b' units from the x-axis. All points on this line have the same y-coordinate 'b'.

Card 8Simultaneous Equations

What are the steps to solve simultaneous linear equations graphically?

Answer

1. Draw the graph (straight line) for each equation on the same graph paper 2. Find the coordinates of the point where the two lines intersect 3. The coordinates of the intersection point give the sol
