What is the slope of a line?

Back

The slope of a line is a measure of its steepness, calculated as the change in y divided by the change in x (rise/run).

What is the y-intercept?

Back

The y-intercept is the point where a line crosses the y-axis, represented by the value of y when x = 0.

How do you determine if a set of values is a function?

Back

A set of values is a function if no two ordered pairs have the same first element (x-value).

What does it mean for a graph to be increasing?

Back

A graph is increasing if, as the x-values increase, the y-values also increase.

Front

What does it mean for a graph to be decreasing?

Back

A graph is decreasing if, as the x-values increase, the y-values decrease.
