Webercise Activity
For this extra credit activity you will make up your own linear equations and graphs. You will
utilize online graphing calculators to make graphs from linear equations and vice versa. All work
will be done using the computer, but final copy will be written down to be turned in during class
for extra credit.
1. Access Virtual Math to review what linear equations are and how to recheck your work. You
will need to know this for the end.
2. In your own words define what you think is a linear equation.
3. Make up three linear equations.
4. Solve your linear equations and show your work step-by-step.
5. With your linear equations draw a graph for each of them. If you need help use Symbolab to
check your work.
6. With your answers you received from your three equations go back and substitute those
numbers into the original equation. See if your answers are correct.
7. Next using Desmos make a vertical line, and copy down the graph you see. Repeat this for
three graphs total.
8. Now using your graphs, try to make a linear equation for each one. Working backwards from
the answer use it to make up an equation.
9. After making up an equation for each graph, solve the equations. Show your work!
10. If all answers match up, turn it in for extra credit!
*11. If you wish to work with a partner the work will be doubled, but each of you will receive
full amount of extra credit if fully completed.
