Can you identify:
Which equation is LINEAR and which equation is QUADRATIC?
Can you explain WHY?
2. Come up with FIVE LINEAR equations
3. Come up with 5 QUADRATIC equations
For this linear equation, find the value of x when y equals:
y = 0: x = ?
y = 1; x = ?
y = 10; x = ?
y = -2; x = ?
For this quadratic equation, find the value of x when y equals:
y = 0: x = ?
y = 1; x = ?
y = 10; x = ?
y = -2; x = ?
