Content description

graph linear relations on the Cartesian plane using digital tools where appropriate; solve linear equations and one-variable inequalities using graphical and algebraic techniques; verify solutions by substitution

Elaborations

recognising that in a table of values, if the first difference between consecutive values of the dependent variable is constant, then it is a linear relation
graphing linear functions and relations of the form $x = a$ , $y = a$ , $x \leq a$ , $x > a$ , $y \leq a$ , $y > a$ on the Cartesian plane for known values of $a$
completing a table of values, plotting the resulting points on the Cartesian plane and determining whether the relationship is linear
graphing the linear relationship $a x + b = c$ for given values of $a, b$ and $c$ and identifying from the graph where $a x + b < c$ or where $a x + b > c$
solving linear equations of the form $a x + b = c$ and one-variable inequalities of the form $a x + b < c$ or $a x + b > c$ where $a$ > 0 using inverse operations and digital tools, and checking solutions by substitution
solving linear equations such as $3 x + 7 = 6 x - 9,$ representing these graphically, and verifying solutions by substitution
