3

Front

What type of function is y=7(5)^x?

Front

Which graph represents a linear function?

Back

Graph D

Front

How do you know if a point is a solution to an inequality?

Back

If it is in the shaded region.

Front

Define a linear function.

Back

A function that graphs to a straight line, represented by the equation y = mx + b.

Front

What is an exponential function?

Back

A function in which an independent variable is in the exponent, typically in the form y = ab^x.

Front

What is the difference between linear and exponential growth?

Back

Linear growth increases by a constant amount, while exponential growth increases by a constant percentage.

Front

What does the slope of a linear function represent?

Back

The rate of change of the function, indicating how much y changes for a unit change in x.

Front

What is the formula for finding the slope between two points (x1, y1) and (x2, y2)?

Back

Slope (m) = (y2 - y1) / (x2 - x1).
