Straight Line Graphs
m gives the gradient of the line and c gives the y intercept.
All straight line
graphs are of the
form y = mx + c
The gradient is
defined as the
rise/run
rise = 2
run = 1
y intercept = 3
y = 2x + 3

6. Consider the straight lines shown below:
(a) (c)(b)
(d) (e)
Can you split the lines into two groups based on their gradients ?
Lines (a) (c) and (d) slope upwards from left to right.
Lines (b) and (e) slope downwards from left to right.
