Unit 5 Review

Front

What is a positive slope?

Back

A positive slope indicates that as the x-value increases, the y-value also increases, resulting in an upward line on a graph.

Front

What is a negative slope?

Back

A negative slope indicates that as the x-value increases, the y-value decreases, resulting in a downward line on a graph.

Front

What does a zero slope represent?

Back

A zero slope represents a horizontal line where the y-value remains constant as the x-value changes.

Front

What does an undefined slope indicate?

Back

An undefined slope indicates a vertical line where the x-value remains constant and the y-value can change.

Front

What is a linear equation?

Back

A linear equation is an equation that graphs to a straight line, typically in the form y = mx + b.

Front

What is a non-linear equation?

Back

A non-linear equation is an equation that does not graph to a straight line, such as quadratic or exponential equations.

Front

What does it mean if an equation has one solution?

Back

An equation has one solution when the graphs of the equations intersect at exactly one point.

Front

What does it mean if an equation has infinite solutions?

Back

An equation has infinite solutions when the graphs of the equations are the same line, meaning they intersect at every point.

Front

What does it mean if an equation has no solution?

Back

An equation has no solution when the graphs of the equations are parallel and never intersect.

Front

How do you identify a linear function from a table of values?

Back

A linear function will have a constant rate of change between the x-values and y-values.
