• True

• False

When looking at two coordinates, you shouldn't decide to call the x and y of the same coordinate by the same letter to identify them, but different numbers.

• False. You want to name each x and y of each coordinate the same number

• True it make sense to every each letter with different number

Which of the following equation isn't equal to the slope

• m = slope

• Δy⁄Δx = m

• (Y2 - Y1)/(X2-X1)

• (Y1-Y2)/(X1-X2)

• b = y - intercept

My friend Dennis kept talking about how slope is rising over run. I was curious, is it left to right or right to left

• Right to left

• Left to Right

What is the definition of reciprocal

• a mathematical expression or function so related to another that their product is one; the quantity obtained by dividing the number one by a given quantity.

• the rise and run just switch!

• x and y switch sides amigos

• blah blah blah switch

What is a Linear Function?

• y = mx + b

• slope

• constant

• a slope greater than 0

A Linear equation has a constant change

• Yes

• No

What are some synonyms for constant in Linear Equation

• Same

• Slope

• Y-intercept

What is slope intercept form

• y = mx + b
