This paper provides solutions to the discussion questions. However, some aspects of the discussion questions that needs the feedback or the response of the classmates are not included herein.
Both linear equations and functions deal with the x coordinates and y coordinates (points) on a graph. A linear equation often asks for the solution for both x and y while a function gives the value of either x or y.
Differences
Functions are expressed by the use of symbols that represent both the output (y) and the input (x). Both the x and y forms a set of ordered pairs. Example: y = 7x + ...
