Graph linear equations:
To graph a linear equation, we can use the slope and y-intercept. Locate the y-
intercept on the graph and plot the point. From this point, use the slope to find a
second point and plot it. Draw the line that connects the two points.

a. y=x

General equation of the line
The formula 0 = Ax + By + C is said to be the 'general form' for the
equation of a line. A, B, and C are three real numbers. Once these are given, the
values for x and y that make the statement true express a set, or locus, of (x, y)
points which form a certain line.
We are going to use the following equation:
y = m x + b
Where: m is called slope
b is called y-intercept
x is the number in x-coordinate
Thus, the slope of the line that passes through the points y it is
calculated by:
We need all these equations to find, depending on the situation, the equation of
the line.
