About this lesson
This is the next video in the series which looks at linear relations for the General Maths Units 1 and 2 course. Finding the equation of a straight line graph from its intercept and slope is a really interesting part of the course and I love this stuff! I take a look at how to find the equation of the line by reading off the intercept on the y-axis and then draw triangles to find the gradient. Substituting this into the equation and we're done! There are a number of worked examples which are all explained in my no nonsense, easy to understand way!
