Linear Functions and Graphs
Linear functions and graphs serve as fundamental concepts in mathematics, providing a bedrock for understanding various mathematical principles. At their core, linear functions exhibit a constant rate of change, showcasing a straight-line relationship between variables. The graphical representation, a straight line, offers a visual interpretation of these functions, depicting how changes in one variable correspond to proportional changes in another. This introductory exploration will delve into the essential characteristics of linear functions and graphs, laying the groundwork for a deeper understanding of their applications in diverse mathematical contexts.
