What is the slope-intercept form of a linear equation?

Back

The slope-intercept form is given by the equation y = mx + b, where m is the slope and b is the y-intercept.

Front

How do you find the y-intercept of a linear equation?

Back

To find the y-intercept, set x = 0 in the equation and solve for y.

Front

What does the slope of a line represent?

Back

The slope represents the rate of change of y with respect to x, indicating how steep the line is.

Front

What is the definition of a function?

Back

A function is a relation where each input (x-value) has exactly one output (y-value).

Front

What is the difference between rational numbers and integers?

Back

Rational numbers can be expressed as a fraction of two integers, while integers are whole numbers that can be positive, negative, or zero.

Front

What is the range of a function?

Back

The range is the set of all possible output values (y-values) of a function.

Front

How do you determine if a mapping is a function?

Back

A mapping is a function if each input is paired with exactly one output.

Front

What is the standard form of a linear equation?

Back

The standard form is Ax + By = C, where A, B, and C are integers.

Front

What does it mean for a graph to be linear?

Back

A linear graph represents a linear equation and has a constant slope, forming a straight line.

Front

How do you identify the x-intercept of a linear equation?

Back

To find the x-intercept, set y = 0 in the equation and solve for x.
