Unit 5 Functions Assessment

Front

What is a function in mathematics?

Back

A function is a relation where every input has exactly one output.

Front

What does the slope of a line represent?

Back

The slope represents the rate of change of the function.

Front

How can you identify a linear graph?

Back

A linear graph is a straight line, indicating a constant rate of change.

Front

What is the y-intercept of a graph?

Back

The y-intercept is the point where the graph crosses the y-axis.

Front

What is the difference between a linear function and a non-linear function?

Back

A linear function has a constant rate of change, while a non-linear function does not.

Front

What does it mean for two lines to have the same rate of change?

Back

It means that the slopes of the two lines are equal.

Front

How do you find the slope between two points on a graph?

Back

The slope is calculated as the change in y divided by the change in x (rise over run).

Front

What is the formula for the slope of a line?

Back

The formula for slope (m) is m = (y2 - y1) / (x2 - x1).

Front

What is the significance of the slope in real-world applications?

Back

The slope can represent rates such as speed, cost per item, or any other rate of change.

Front

What is a vertical line's slope?

Back

A vertical line has an undefined slope.
