Front

What is the definition of a linear function?

Back

A linear function is a function that graphs to a straight line and can be expressed in the form y = mx + b, where m is the slope and b is the y-intercept.

FLASHCARD QUESTION

Front

What is a nonlinear function?

Back

A nonlinear function is a function that does not graph to a straight line and may include curves, bends, or other shapes.

FLASHCARD QUESTION

Front

What is the slope of a linear function?

Back

The slope of a linear function is the rate of change of y with respect to x, represented by 'm' in the equation y = mx + b.

7.

FLASHCARD QUESTION

Front

What is the y-intercept in a linear function?

Back

The y-intercept is the point where the graph of the function crosses the y-axis, represented by 'b' in the equation y = mx + b.
