Gradient, intercepts and graphing straight lines. In Year 9, Year 9 students solve more complex equations, work with linear graphs, meet Pythagoras' theorem and trigonometry, and expand binomials.
Students will practise: understanding gradient as rise over run and the y-intercept as the value of y when x = 0; calculating the gradient of a line through two points; finding the equation of a line from its gradient and a point, or from two points; sketching a line from its equation using the intercept and gradient.
Clear explanations, examples and tips.
