6.5 – More Interpreting Linear Equations

MFM1P Specific Expectations

The math help provided for MFM1P Grade 9 Applied will address the following specific expectations:
LR3.05 - describe the meaning of the rate of change and the initial value for a linear relation arising from a realistic situation (e.g., the cost to rent the community gym is $40 per evening, plus $2 per person for equipment rental; the vertical intercept, 40, represents the $40 cost of renting the gym; the value of the rate of change, 2, represents the $2 cost per person), and describe a situation that could be modelled by a given linear equation (e.g., the linear equation M = 50 + 6d could model the mass of a shipping package, including 50 g for the packaging material, plus 6 g per flyer added to the package).

MFM1P Overall Expectations

The math help provided for MFM1P Grade 9 Applied will address the following overall expectations:
Linear Relations - LR3 - Demonstrate an understanding of constant rate of change and its connection to linear relations.
