gr10t2 Functions Linear Function Memo

The document contains 4 sections that discuss linear functions: 1) It defines 4 linear functions f(x), g(x), h(x), k(x) and provides their domains, y-intercepts, and x-intercepts. 2) It shows how to calculate the slope and write the equation of a linear function given two points on the line. It works through examples finding the equations for lines passing through (0,2) and (1,-1), (2,0) and (0,-1), and (0,5) and (-2,3). 3) It defines the linear function given the points (-2,2) and (0,-3)
