Concept #1 : Generalizing the form of a linear equation from data patterns
Learning objectives
- Recognise a pattern in the set of data(in this class a set of coordinates)
- Recognise the variation(proportion/nonproportion)
- Recognise varying and constant terms
- Recognise dependency of one varible with the other
- Establishing the relationship between a variable and a constant
- Generalise the relationship and expressing symbolically
- Explore the possibility of having different patterns
- Understand that every number pattern can be represented on the graph
- Joining the coordinates leads to a straight line or sometimes to non-Linear set
- Interprets the relationship between the set of points on a straight line and on the non-linear set.
- Every pair of points when joined gives a straightline(infinite points can be located between two points
- Relation between the coordinates of set of points which makes a straightline is a Linear Equation /Otherwise Non-Linear
Notes for teachers
- Every Linear Equation represents a straightline .If the relationship(pattern)between two quantities can be represented as straightline then the relationship is in the form of linear equation
- A teacher can develop a lesson on Linear Equation with Geogebra application
