G8 Math Q1 - Week 7 - Equation of A Line

The document discusses equations of lines by explaining the gradient and y-intercept of lines with different slopes, including both positive and negative gradients. It provides examples of linear equations for lines that slope up 1, 2, 3, 4, and 1/2 units for every 1 unit across, as well as for a line that slopes down 2 units for every 1 unit across. For each example, it gives the gradient, explains how it was determined from the slope of the line, and provides the linear equation in y=mx+b form.
