Function An input-output relationship that has exactly one output (y-value) for each input (x-value).
intercepts Points where a line crosses the x-axis and y-axis.
irrational number A number that can not be expressed as a ratio of two integers or as a repeating or terminal decimal.
Line of best fit A straight line that comes closest to the points on a scatter plot having an equal number of points above and below the line.

scientific notation A method of writing very large or very small numbers using powers of 10.
slope intercept form A linear equation written in the form y=mx+b (m represents slope and b represents the y-intercept).
square root One of the two equal factors (multiplication) of a number. It is the side of a square.
Domain The set of x-values that give rise to real y-values.

Use these flashcards to help memorize information. Look at the large card and try to recall what is on the other side. Then click the card to flip it. If you knew the answer, click the green Know box. Otherwise, click the red Don't know box.

When you've placed seven or more cards in the Don't know box, click "retry" to try those cards again.

If you've accidentally put the card in the wrong box, just click on the card to take it out of the box.

You can also use your keyboard to move the cards as follows:

If you are logged in to your account, this website will remember which cards you know and don't know so that they are in the same box the next time you log in.

When you need a break, try one of the other activities listed below the flashcards like Matching, Snowman, or Hungry Bug. Although it may feel like you're playing a game, your brain is still making more connections with the information to help you out.

To see how well you know the information, try the Quiz or Test activity.
