If an equation can be rearranged into the form \(y = mx + c\), then its graph will be a straight line. In the above: \(x + y = 3\) can be rearranged as \(y = 3 - x\) (which can be re-written as \(y = ...

So let's look at first what slope-intercept form is. Slope intercept form is actually y equals mx plus b. The reason why it is called slope intercept form is because it gives a slope and an intercept.

To help draw a straight line graph from its equation, fill in a table of 𝑥 and 𝑦 values. Plot the pairs of values as coordinates and join to make a line. Make sure you are confident with ...
