What is the difference between linear and exponential growth?

Back

Linear growth increases by a constant amount, while exponential growth increases by a constant percentage.

What is the y-intercept in a linear equation?

Back

The point where the line crosses the y-axis, represented by the value of b in y = mx + b.

Front

How do you write an equation for a real-world situation?
