Straight Line Graphs
What are we learning?
Support:
Step 1 - Plot and read coordinates in four quadrants
Step 2 - Lines parallel to the axes
Step 3 - Plot lines of the form y = mx
Step 4 - Plot lines of the form y = x + c
Step 5 - Plot lines of the form y = mx + c
Step 6 - Plot lines of the form x + y = a, y - x = a and x - y = a
