    Rushing down a snow covered slope on wooden planks– that was my reflection of skiing. I never thought skiing to be anything more and I never ever dreamed sliding down the incline myself. Until‚ a holiday to US was planned in December 2009. It was my first experience with snow and it was close to midnight when the plane landed. After renting a four-wheel drive‚ my family and I made our way to a beautiful wooden lodge in Lake Tahoe. The sky was scattered with twinkling stars and the roadsides were

    linear functions. They are slope-intercept‚ point-slope‚ and standard form. There are certain situations where it is better to use one way than another to solve a problem. It is important to understand and comprehend the mechanics of these three forms so that you know what form to use when solving a problem. The first form‚ point-slope‚ is written as y-y1=m(x-x1). M is the slope and x1 and y1 correspond to a point on the line. It’s good to use this form when you know the slope of a line and one point

    Imelda Sayao 1.1 Definition of a Linear Function A linear function is a function whose graph is a straight line. The equation of a linear function of x can be written in the form f(x) = mx + b or a linear equation y = mx + b where m is the slope and b is the y-intercept. The equation in the form Ax + By = C where A‚ B and C are real numbers is referred to as the general form of a linear equation. We can rewrite a given linear equation Ax + By = C in the form y = mx + b and vice-versa
