What is a linear equation?

Back

Front

What does the slope of a line represent?

Back

The slope of a line represents the rate of change of the y-value with respect to the x-value. It indicates how steep the line is.

Front

What is the y-intercept in a linear equation?

Back

Front

How do you find the equation of a line given a slope and a point?

Front

What is the difference between dependent and independent variables?

Back

The independent variable is the variable that is changed or controlled in an experiment (usually x), while the dependent variable is the variable that is measured or affected (usually y).

Front

How can you represent a relationship using a table?

Back

A relationship can be represented using a table by listing pairs of values for the independent and dependent variables, showing how one variable affects the other.

Front

What is a function?

Back

A function is a relation that assigns exactly one output for each input. In other words, for every x-value, there is one corresponding y-value.

Front

What does it mean for a graph to be linear?

Back

A graph is linear if it forms a straight line. This indicates a constant rate of change between the variables.

Front

How do you determine if an equation is linear?

Back

Front

What is the significance of the coefficients in a linear equation?

Back

The coefficients in a linear equation determine the slope and the y-intercept, which affect the steepness and position of the line on the graph.
