Students are provided with structure to facilitate
plotting straight line graphs of implicit equations.
The focus of this lesson could be any of the following: —
Plotting straight line graphs; — Rearranging equations; — Simultaneous equations; — Intersection of straight lines; — What it means to «satisfy» an equation; — Implicit vs explicit equations.
Requires knowledge of
plotting straight line graphs and solving simultaneous equations.
After working out their table of values and
plotting the straight line graph they are given questions that assess their ability to interpret the graph.

All this Global Warming if you
plot it on a
graph with the vertical y - axis incremented in whole degrees you could free hand a
straight line starting from the end of the Little Ice Age all the way to the current day and see there has been no dramatic global average temperature change since the turn of the 19th century.
If I go out and measure something, anything, and
plot the points of a piece of
graph paper, and the points may lie on a
straight line, some sort of curve, or there may be so much noise in the data that no trend is apparent, then this is what fits the data.
But if you look at 65 - year climate since 1868
plotted against rising CO2 forcing, making the appropriate allowance for variations in heat from the Sun during that period, you get a perfectly
straight line heading upwards at a rate of 1.73 °C per doubling of CO2, as can be seen from this
graph.
