The introduction week to the Relations & Functions unit was reviewing concepts from grade 9. For example linear equations, working with a table of values, and inputs and outputs. But this week intercepts were introduced.

SOLVING AN EQUATION;

What ever intercept you are trying to solve that will mean that the other variable will be zero

ex; x – intercept = 0

then you work through the steps with the expression (BFSD) in your mind

Brackets

Fractions

Sorting (Zero pairs)

Divide

Once you remove the brackets and Fractions you are on sorting will means having numbers on each side.

For example;

4x -8 = 8

+8 = 8

then you divide with the coefficient.
