What is the y-intercept of a linear function?
Back
The y-intercept is the point where the graph of the function crosses the y-axis, represented by the value of b in the equation y = mx + b.

FLASHCARD QUESTION
Front
What is an exponential function?
Back
An exponential function is a function of the form y = ab^x, where a is a constant, b is the base, and x is the exponent. It graphs to a curve that increases or decreases rapidly.
