FLASHCARD QUESTION
Front
How can you identify a linear function from its equation?
Back
A linear function can be identified by its equation in the form y = mx + b, where m and b are constants. If the equation involves variables raised to a power greater than one, it is nonlinear.

FLASHCARD QUESTION
Front
What is the slope of a linear function?
Back
The slope of a linear function is a measure of its steepness, represented by 'm' in the equation y = mx + b. It indicates how much y changes for a unit change in x.

FLASHCARD QUESTION
Front
What does the y-intercept represent in a linear function?
Back
The y-intercept is the point where the graph of the function crosses the y-axis. It is represented by 'b' in the equation y = mx + b.

FLASHCARD QUESTION
Front
Can a linear function have a slope of zero?
Back
Yes, a linear function can have a slope of zero, which means it is a horizontal line. This indicates that the output value (y) does not change regardless of the input value (x).

FLASHCARD QUESTION
Front
What is an example of a nonlinear function?
Back
An example of a nonlinear function is f(x) = x^2, which represents a parabola. The graph of this function is curved, not a straight line.
