Term
Definition
Ordered Pairs   A pair of numbers (x,y) used to locate a point In a coordinate plane. The first number is the x-coordinate.  
🗑
Coordinate plane   A coordinate plane is formed by the intersection of a horizontal number line, usually called the x-axis, and a vertical number line, usually called the y-axis.  
🗑
x-axis   The horizontal number line in a coordinate plane.  
🗑
y-axis   The vertical number line in a coordinate plane.  
🗑
x-coordinate   The first coordinate in an ordered pair, which indicates how many units to move to the left or right.  
🗑
y-coordinate   The second coordinate in an ordered pair, which indicates how many units to move up or down.  
🗑
Linear equation   An equation whose graph is a line.  
🗑
Solution of a linear equation   A value that makes an equation true.  
🗑
Slope   A ratio of the change in y (the rise) to the change in x (the run) between any two points on a line. It is a measure of the steepness of a line.  
🗑
Rise   The change in y between two points on a line.  
🗑
Run   The change in x between two points on a line.  
🗑
Slope - intercept form   A linear function written in the form y mx b = +. The slope of the line is m and the y-intercept of the line is b.  
🗑
x-intercept   The y-coordinate of the point where a line crosses the y-axis.  
🗑
y-intercept   The x-coordinate of the point where a line crosses the x-axis.  
🗑
Standard form   Standard form is a way to write numbers using the digits 0-9.  
🗑
Systems of linear equations   any equation such that the sum of two solutions is a solution, and a constant multiple of a solution is a solution.  
🗑
Solution of a system of linear equations   the solution set is the intersection of these lines, and is hence either a line, a single point, or the empty set.  
🗑


   

Review the information in the table. When you are ready to quiz yourself you can hide individual columns or the entire table. Then you can click on the empty cells to reveal the answer. Try to recall what will be displayed before clicking the empty cell.
 
To hide a column, click on the column name.
 
To hide the entire table, click on the "Hide All" button.
 
You may also shuffle the rows of the table by clicking on the "Shuffle" button.
 
Or sort by any of the columns using the down arrow next to any column heading.
If you know all the data on any row, you can temporarily remove it by tapping the trash can to the right of the row.
