1. A linear relationship is an equation that goes up at a steady rate. In the equation y=mx+b each variable stands for a different thing. The variable m is the coefficient which is the number that multiplies the a variable. The variable b is the y-intercept which is where the line crosses the y-axis. Finally, the variable x is the independent variable or in put and the y variable is the dependant variable or out put.

a. For a graph that is linear you can solve a problem by finding where the line lines up with the x and y axis. Also for the table it could be like an in and out table.
b. I have used an equation to solve a problem like if two phone company's are a plan you could use an equation to figure out which one is more expensive to sign up for and have for a year.
