An applied example of the use of two points on a graph to develop a straight line function, then use the t estimate and predict. MCQ's are also used to develop student understanding of the uses of gradient and intercepts as well as the limitations of prediction.

Use two points on a line graph to calculate the gradient and $y$-intercept and hence the equation of the straight line running through both points.

The answer box for the third part plots the function which allows the student to check their answer against the graph before submitting.

This particular example has a positive gradient.

There are copious comments in the definition of the function eqnline about the voodoo needed to have a JSXGraph diagram interact with the input box for a part.
