Connecting linear rules and graph

A growth is shown in a graph by how many times it goes down or up to the next number if it’s positive or negative. To find a growth in a rule is to look at the number in front of x and the number adding. You can determine the number of tiles in figure 0 on a graph is if the plot dot is on the y axis. To determine how fast a pattern grows on a graph is by the numbers for each figure.

Y=mx+b

What is y=mx+b

M stands for the growth in a pattern or table and B stands for the number of tiles in figure 0.

Graphing without an x and y table

In order to graph with a rule such as y=4x+2 you already know what 0 is going to be which is 2 because the two stands for how many tiles in fig 0 and you would keep plotting by adding for to each number. In order to increase you go up four times and in order to decrease you go down four times.
