This four-lesson series will cover several concepts that are useful for economics as they will help you understand how to draw and interpret graphs. The first lesson looks at the use of graphs in modeling direct relationships. It will show you how these types of relationships look in graphs and walk you through some examples from economics. The next lesson looks at the modeling of two-variable linear relationships. It will show you how these types of relationships look in graphs, how they function and walk you through some examples from economics. The third lesson will show you how changing intercepts show up in linear functions and their graphs. The fourth and final lesson will show you what slope is and why it is important in interpreting graphs and understanding linear functions.
Taught by Professor Tomlinson, this video series was selected from a broader, comprehensive course, Economics. This course and others are available from Thinkwell, Inc. The full course can be found at http://www.thinkwell.com/student/product/economics. The full course covers economic thinking, markets, consumer choice, household behavior, production, costs, perfect competition, market models, resource markets, market failures, market outcomes, macroeconomics, macroeconomic measurements, economic fluctuations, unemployment, inflation, the aggregate expenditures model, banking, spending, saving, investing, aggregate demand and aggregate supply model, monetary policy, fiscal policy, productivity and growth, and international examples.
