 In many problems data are listed as ordered pairs.
 If we plot each pair of data as an ordered pair, we
can see whether the points form a straight line.
 If they form a straight line they are linear.
 Points that do not form a straight line are nonlinear.
Linear versus Non-linear

The following points show the path of an object over
time. Plot the points with the time along the horizontal
axis and the distance along the vertical axis. Then state
whether the path is linear or nonlinear.

The data points form a straight line;
the path of the object is linear.

1. Determine whether a given pair of coordinates is a
solution to a given equation with two unknowns.
2. Find solutions for an equation with two unknowns.
3. Graph linear equations.

Determine whether the ordered pair is a solution for
the equation.
y = 4x – 3
5 4(–3) – 3 Replace x with –3 and y with 5.
5 –12 – 3
5  –15 Because the equation is not true, (–3, 5) is not a
solution for y = 4x – 3.

To determine if a given ordered pair is a solution:
1. Replace the variables in the equation with the
corresponding coordinates.
2. Verify that the equation is true.

Determine if the given ordered pair is a solution to the given equation.

Find three solutions for the equation.
Replace one of the variables with a chosen value and then
solve for the other variable.
Choose x = 0
4x + y = 5
4(0) + y = 5
y = 5
Solution (0, 5)
4x + y = 5
4(1) + y = 5
4 + y = 5
y = 1
Solution (1, 1)
4x + y = 5
4(2) + y = 5
8 + y = 5
y = –3
Solution (2, 3)
How do we find solutions for an equation with two unknowns?
4x + y = 5

The solutions can be summarized in a table:
There are an infinite number of correct solutions for a
given equation in two variables.
x y Ordered Pair
0 5 (0, 5)
1 1 (1, 1)

To Find Solutions to Equations with Two Variables
1. Choose a value for one of the variables (any
value).
2. Replace the corresponding variable with your
chosen value.
3. Solve the equation for the value of the other
variable.

To Graph Linear Equations
1. Find at least two solutions to the equation.
2. Plot the solutions as points in the rectangular
coordinate system.
3. Connect the points to form a straight line.
