Process (How to do the activity)
Ask the students to observe the given table describe the pattern using words .
Ask them to plot and join the points on grids and ask how the line segments is visible in the graph.
ask them to write the relation between X and Y.
(we can come to a conclusion that the larger the absolute value of the number,the linebecomes steeper.)
