Linear Functions

Description

This image is part of a series illustrating key concepts in linear functions, focusing on the various orientations of linear functions. It shows the slope-intercept equation alongside several linear graphs, emphasizing the infinite possibilities for linear function orientations.

The image demonstrates that linear functions can have an infinite number of orientations, extending infinitely in all directions. This concept helps students understand the versatility and wide-ranging applications of linear functions in modeling real-world relationships.

Teachers can use this image to expand students' understanding by saying: "Look at these different lines. The caption tells us that 'The graph of a linear function is a line that extends to infinity in all directions with an infinite number of orientations.' What does this mean for our ability to model different scenarios with linear functions? Can you think of examples where we might need very different slopes or y-intercepts?"
