What is the definition of a linear equation?

Back

Front

What does the slope of a line represent?

Back

The slope of a line represents the rate of change of the y-coordinate with respect to the x-coordinate. It indicates how steep the line is.

Front

How do you find the slope between two points (x1, y1) and (x2, y2)?

Back

Front

What is the difference between a linear equation and a linear inequality?

Back

A linear equation represents a straight line, while a linear inequality represents a region of the coordinate plane that satisfies the inequality.

Front

What does it mean for a point to be a solution to a system of equations?

Back

A point is a solution to a system of equations if it satisfies all equations in the system simultaneously.

Front

How do you graph a linear inequality?

Back

To graph a linear inequality, first graph the corresponding linear equation as a dashed or solid line, then shade the region that satisfies the inequality.

Front

How do you solve for a variable in an equation?

Back

To solve for a variable, isolate it on one side of the equation using inverse operations.

Front

What is the y-intercept of a linear equation?

Back

Front

What does it mean for a system of equations to be consistent?

Back

A system of equations is consistent if it has at least one solution.
