Practice Questions
Answer all questions. Show your working in the grid spaces provided.
1.
Given the line y = 3x + 2, find the value of y when x = 4.
[2 marks]2.
Calculate the y-intercept of the line y = -2x + 5.
[2 marks]3.
Plot the graph of y = 0.5x - 1 on the grid provided.
[3 marks]4.
If a line has a gradient of 4 and passes through the point (2, 3), find its equation in the form y=mx+c.
[3 marks]5.
Construct a triangle with vertices at (0,0), (2,4), and (4,0). Find the equation of the line passing through (0,0) and (2,4).
[3 marks]6.
A line has a gradient of -1.5 and passes through the point (3, 2). Write its equation in the form y=mx+c.
[3 marks]7.
A real-world scenario: A car's speed (in km/h) is given by y = 60x + 20, where x is the number of hours since starting. How far has the car traveled after 3 hours?
[4 marks]8.
The line y = 2x + c passes through the point (4, 10). Find the value of c and write the full equation.
[3 marks]9.
Identify and correct the mistake: A student states that the equation y=4x+3 with a gradient of 4 must have a y-intercept of 3. Is this correct? Explain.
[4 marks]10.
Challenge: Find the equation of a line parallel to y=2x+1 and passing through the point (5, 3).
[4 marks]11.
Mixed review: For the line y = -0.5x + c, if c = -2, plot its graph and describe its slope and intercept.
