Algebraic Relationships

Front

What is an algebraic relationship?

Back

An algebraic relationship is a mathematical connection between variables that can be expressed using equations or formulas.

Front

What is a dependent variable?

Back

A dependent variable is the variable that depends on the value of another variable, often represented as 'y' in equations.

Front

What is an independent variable?

Back

An independent variable is the variable that is changed or controlled in an experiment, often represented as 'x' in equations.

Front

What does the equation y = 3x represent?

Back

This equation shows a linear relationship where for every unit increase in x, y increases by 3.

Front

What is the x-axis?

Back

The x-axis is the horizontal line on a graph where the independent variable is plotted.

Front

What is the y-axis?

Back

The y-axis is the vertical line on a graph where the dependent variable is plotted.

Front

What is an additive relationship?

Back

An additive relationship is a relationship where a constant value is added to a variable to produce another value.

Front

How do you identify the dependent variable from a table?

Back

The dependent variable is usually the output or result that changes in response to the independent variable.

Front

What is the purpose of a graph in algebra?

Back

A graph visually represents the relationship between variables, making it easier to understand patterns and trends.

Front

What does it mean to complete a table in algebra?

Back

Completing a table involves filling in missing values based on the relationship defined by the equation or pattern.
