Equations and Inequations
Equations and inequalities describe the relationship between two mathematical expressions.
Linear Functions
A linear function can just be a constant, or it can be the constant multiplied with the variable like x or y. If the variables are of the form, x2, x1/2 or y2 it is not linear. The exponent over the variables should always be 1.

Notes:
• Your answers must be given as decimal approximations.
• When completing the table, make sure your answers are accurate to at least 4
decimal places.
• Be careful when computing the slope, you may need more than 4 decimal
places for the y-coordinate in order for the slope to achieve the required
аccuracy.
