Key concept: page 207 Example 2
Plot Points in a Coordinate Plane. Describe the location of the point.
a. A(-4,4)

Begin at the origin. First move 4 units to the left, then 4 units up. Point A is in
Quadrant II.
Begin at the origin. First move 3 units to the right, then 2 units down. Point B is in
Quadrant IV.
Begin at the origin. And move 4 units down. Point C is on the y-axis.

Graph a function represented by a table
Years before or since 1920 -12 -8 -4 0 4 8 12
Votes (millions)
15 15 19 27 29 37 40
Explain how you know that the table represents a function.
b.
Graph the function represented by the table.
c.
Describe any trend in the number of votes cast.
Solution
a. The table represents a function because each input has exactly one output.
b. To graph the function, let X be the number of years before or since 1920. Let Y be the number
of votes cast (in millions).
c. In the 3 election yrs before 1920, the no. of votes cast was less than 20 million. In 1920, the no.
of votes cast was greater than 20 million. The no. of votes cast continued to increase in
the 3 election yrs since 1920.

Graphing Linear Equations using tables
4.2
Key concept: Page 216 Example 3
Graph y=b and x=a

Graph (a) y=2 and (b) x=-1.
Solution
a.
For every value of x, the value of y is 2. The graph of the equation y=2
is a horizontal line 2 units above the x-axis.
Graphing Linear Equations using tables
4.2
Key vocabulary: Vertical & Horizontal Lines
Equations of Horizontal and Vertical Lines
The graph of y = b is a horizontal line. The line passes through the point
(0,b)
1)A y – int. of a graph is the y-coordinate of a point where the graph
crosses the y-axis.
The graph of x = a is a vertical line. The line passes through the point (a,
0).
2) An x – int. of a graph is the x-coordinate of a point where the graph
crosses the x-axis.
Graphing using intercepts
4.3
Key concept: Page 225 Example 1
Find the intercepts of the graph of an
equation
solution
a. To find the x-intercept, substitute 0 for y and solve for x.
b. To find the y-intercept, substitute 0 for x and solve for y.
4.3
Key concept : Page 226 Example 2
Use intercepts to graph an equation (graph the equation x+2y =
4)
solution
1st find the intercepts.
x+2y=4
x+2y=4
x+2(0)=4
0+2y=4
x=4
y=2
2nd plot points. The x -int. is 4, so plot the point (4,0). The y -int.
is 2, so plot the point (0,2). Draw a line through the points.
