FLASHCARD QUESTION
Front
What is a non-proportional linear relationship?
Back
A non-proportional linear relationship is a relationship between two variables that can be represented by a linear equation, but does not pass through the origin (0,0). This means that the y-intercept is not zero.
2.
FLASHCARD QUESTION
Front
What does the slope of a line represent?
Back
The slope of a line represents the rate of change of the dependent variable (y) with respect to the independent variable (x). It indicates how steep the line is and the direction it goes.
3.
FLASHCARD QUESTION
Front
How do you calculate the slope (m) between two points (x1, y1) and (x2, y2)?
Back
The slope (m) is calculated using the formula: m = (y2 - y1) / (x2 - x1).

FLASHCARD QUESTION
Front
What is the y-intercept of a linear equation?
Back
The y-intercept is the value of y when x is 0. It is the point where the line crosses the y-axis.
5.
FLASHCARD QUESTION
Front
What is the general form of a linear equation?
Back
The general form of a linear equation is y = mx + b, where m is the slope and b is the y-intercept.
6.
FLASHCARD QUESTION
Front
What does a negative slope indicate about a linear relationship?
Back
A negative slope indicates that as the independent variable (x) increases, the dependent variable (y) decreases, showing an inverse relationship.
7.
FLASHCARD QUESTION
Front
What does a positive slope indicate about a linear relationship?
Back
A positive slope indicates that as the independent variable (x) increases, the dependent variable (y) also increases, showing a direct relationship.
