What is the starting point of a table in a linear function?

Back

The starting point is the y-intercept, which is the value of y when x = 0.

Front

What is the substitution method in solving systems of equations?

Back

The substitution method involves solving one equation for one variable and substituting that expression into the other equation.

Front

How do you determine if a graph is linear or exponential?

Back

A linear graph has a constant rate of change, while an exponential graph increases or decreases at a rate proportional to its current value.

What is a linear equation?

Back

Front

What does the slope of a line represent?

Back

The slope represents the rate of change of y with respect to x, indicating how steep the line is.

Front

What is the y-intercept of a linear equation?

Back

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