Equations

Definition

Visual models for equations use graphical representations to illustrate the relationships between variables.

Description

Visual models for equations include graphs, charts, and diagrams that represent the relationships between variables. For example, a graph of the equation 

y = 2x + 3

shows a straight line with a slope of 2 and a y-intercept of 3. These models help in understanding and interpreting equations.

In real-world applications, visual models are used in data analysis, engineering, and economics to illustrate trends and relationships. Understanding visual models for equations helps students interpret and analyze data, and solve problems graphically.
