What is a unit rate?

Back

A unit rate is a comparison of two different quantities where one of the quantities is expressed as a quantity of one. For example, if a car travels 60 miles in 2 hours, the unit rate is 30 miles per hour.

How do you find the unit rate from a graph?

Back

To find the unit rate from a graph, identify the change in the y-axis (output) and the change in the x-axis (input). Divide the change in y by the change in x to get the unit rate.

What does the y-intercept represent in a graph?

Back

The y-intercept is the point where the graph crosses the y-axis. It represents the value of the dependent variable when the independent variable is zero.

Front

How do you identify the y-intercept from a table?

Back

To identify the y-intercept from a table, look for the row where the independent variable (usually x) is zero. The corresponding value of the dependent variable (usually y) is the y-intercept.

Front

What is the significance of the y-intercept in real-life scenarios?

Back

In real-life scenarios, the y-intercept can represent the starting point or initial value of a situation before any changes occur.

If a hiker starts at a height of 360 feet, what does this indicate on a graph?

Back

This indicates that the y-intercept of the graph is (0, 360), meaning at time zero, the hiker is at a height of 360 feet.

What is the formula for finding the slope of a line on a graph?

Back

The slope (m) is calculated using the formula m = (change in y) / (change in x) between two points on the line.

What does a slope of 0 indicate about a line on a graph?

Back

A slope of 0 indicates that the line is horizontal, meaning there is no change in the y-value as the x-value changes.

What does a positive slope indicate about a relationship between two variables?

Back

A positive slope indicates a direct relationship, meaning as one variable increases, the other variable also increases.
