FLASHCARD QUESTION

Front

What is a linear equation?

Back

A linear equation is an equation that makes a straight line when graphed. It can be written in the form y = mx + b, where m is the slope and b is the y-intercept.

2.

FLASHCARD QUESTION

Front

What does it mean for two lines to intersect on a graph?

Back

When two lines intersect on a graph, it means that there is a solution to both equations at that point, representing the values of x and y that satisfy both equations.

3.

FLASHCARD QUESTION

Front

How can you determine the point of intersection of two linear equations graphically?

Back

To determine the point of intersection graphically, plot both equations on the same coordinate grid and identify the point where the two lines cross.

4.

FLASHCARD QUESTION

Front

What is the slope of a line?

Back

The slope of a line is a measure of its steepness, calculated as the rise over run (change in y over change in x). It indicates how much y changes for a unit change in x.

5.

FLASHCARD QUESTION

Front

What is the y-intercept of a linear equation?

Back

The y-intercept is the point where the line crosses the y-axis, represented by the value of y when x is 0 in the equation y = mx + b.

6.

FLASHCARD QUESTION

Front

How do you find the solution to a system of linear equations?

Back

The solution to a system of linear equations can be found by graphing the equations and identifying the point of intersection, or by using algebraic methods such as substitution or elimination.

7.

FLASHCARD QUESTION

Front

What does it mean for two equations to have the same solution?

Back

Two equations have the same solution if they intersect at the same point on a graph, meaning that the values of x and y satisfy both equations.
