2. Linear function (calculus) - Wikipedia

   en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Linear_function_(calculus)

   A linear function is a polynomial function in which the variable x has degree at most one: [2] = +. Such a function is called linear because its graph, the set of all points (, ()) in the Cartesian plane, is a line. The coefficient a is called the slope of the function and of the line (see below).

3. Linear equation - Wikipedia

   en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Linear_equation

   Conversely, every line is the set of all solutions of a linear equation. The phrase "linear equation" takes its origin in this correspondence between lines and equations: a linear equation in two variables is an equation whose solutions form a line. If b ≠ 0, the line is the graph of the function of x that has been defined in the preceding ...

4. Log–log plot - Wikipedia

   en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Log–log_plot

   In science and engineering, a log–log graph or log–log plot is a two-dimensional graph of numerical data that uses logarithmic scales on both the horizontal and vertical axes. Power functions – relationships of the form y = a x k {\displaystyle y=ax^{k}} – appear as straight lines in a log–log graph, with the exponent corresponding to ...

5. Graph (discrete mathematics) - Wikipedia

   en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Graph_(discrete_mathematics)

   A path graph or linear graph of order n ≥ 2 is a graph in which the vertices can be listed in an order v 1, v 2, …, v n such that the edges are the {v i, v i+1} where i = 1, 2, …, n − 1. Path graphs can be characterized as connected graphs in which the degree of all but two vertices is 2 and the degree of the two remaining vertices is 1.

6. Graph of a function - Wikipedia

   en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Graph_of_a_function

   Given a function: from a set X (the domain) to a set Y (the codomain), the graph of the function is the set [4] = {(, ()):}, which is a subset of the Cartesian product.In the definition of a function in terms of set theory, it is common to identify a function with its graph, although, formally, a function is formed by the triple consisting of its domain, its codomain and its graph.

7. Linear function - Wikipedia

   en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Linear_function

   In mathematics, the term linear function refers to two distinct but related notions: [1] In calculus and related areas, a linear function is a function whose graph is a straight line, that is, a polynomial function of degree zero or one. [2] For distinguishing such a linear function from the other concept, the term affine function is often used ...
