Straight Line Equations and Inequalities A: Linear Equations - Straight lines Please remember that when you are drawing graphs you should always label your axes and that y is always shown on the vertical axis. A linear equation between two variables x and y can be represented by y = a + bx where “a” and “b” are any two constants. For example‚ suppose we wish to plot the straight line If x = -2‚ say‚ then y = 3 + 2(-2) = 3 - 4 = -1 If x= -2 -1 -1 1 0 3 1 5 2 7 As you can see‚ we have plotted the
