What is the definition of a linear equation?

Back

A linear equation is an equation that makes a straight line when graphed.

What does it mean if a mapping is not a function?

Back

If a mapping is not a function, it means that at least one input corresponds to multiple outputs.

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

Back

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

How do you calculate the slope between two points?

Back

The slope (m) between two points (x1, y1) and (x2, y2) is calculated as m = (y2 - y1) / (x2 - x1).

What is the y-intercept of a line?

Back

The y-intercept is the point where the line crosses the y-axis, represented as (0, b) in the equation y = mx + b.

Front

What is the equation of a line that passes through the points (1, 2) and (3, 4)?

Back

The equation of the line is y = x + 1.
