Linear Equations and Linear Functions Problem Solving Tutorial

2.1K views on YouTube

https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=2AG_Dt3x7q0. In this math tutorial, learn how to solve linear equations for their intercepts and slopes. Also learn about slope-intercept form and point-slope form of the equation of a line (graph a linear function). Also discussed are word problems, directly proportional, inversely proportional, and general functions representing change (for example, speed and distance). A challenge problem using the quadratic formula is solved at the end. Infinite Powers, How Calculus Reveals the Secrets of the Universe: https://amzn.to/37PBMjb.
