Study Plan

1
Day 1–2

Learn the Theory

Read the textbook chapter carefully. Note down definitions, formulas and key ideas. Focus on: 1. Linear Equations in Two Variables, 2. Graph of a Linear Equation, 3. Reading Unknown Values from a Graph.

2
Day 3

Practise

Solve the textbook exercises and extra practice questions. There are 37 questions available for this chapter.

3
Day 4

Revise & Test

Revise key points without looking at your notes. Take a practice quiz and mark weak areas for another pass.

Day 7

Spaced Revision

Come back to Graphical Solution after a week. Use flashcards for quick recall and try past exam questions on this chapter.

What to Focus On

  • ax+by+c=0 is the general form of a linear equation in two variables.
  • A linear equation in two variables graphs as a straight line.
  • There are five steps to draw the graph of a linear equation ax+by+c=0.
  • Graphs can help find missing values in a table.
  • Graphs can help identify the linear relation between x and y.
  • y=mx+c is the slope-intercept form.
  • A point lies on a line if its coordinates satisfy the equation.
  • Horizontal and vertical construction lines help read values from a graph.
  • For a point (m,-2), use y=-2 first.

Common Mistakes to Avoid

The equation of the x-axis is x = 0 and the equation of the y-axis is y = 0.

A line of the form x = a is parallel to the x-axis, and a line of the form y = b is parallel to the y-axis.

Any three points can be joined to make the graph of a linear equation, even if they do not lie on the same line.
