Question
Answer
slope   the slope m of a nonvertical line is the ratio of the vertical change (rise) to the horizontal change (run) between any two points (x1,y1) y y1y2) on the line  
🗑
run   the horizontal change in a line  
🗑
rise   the vertical change in a line  
🗑
point-slope form   an equation of a nonvertical line written in the form y-y1=m(x-x1) and has a slope of m  
🗑
standard form   ax+by=c, where a, b and c are real numbers and a and b are not both zero.  
🗑
x-intercept   the x-coordinate of a point where a graph crosses the x-axis  
🗑
y-intercept   the y-coordinate of a point where a graph crosses the y-axis  
🗑
slope-intercept form   a linear equation written in the form y=mx+b where m is the slope and b is the y intercept of the equation's graph  
🗑
family of functions   a group of functions with similar characteristics  
🗑
parent linear functions   the function f(x)=x  
🗑
parallel lines   two lines in the same plane that don't intersect  
🗑
perpendicular lines   two lines in the same plane that intersect to form a right angle  
🗑
direct variation   the relationship of two variables x and y if there is a nonzero number a such that y=ax. if y=ax, then y is said to vary directly with x.  
🗑
inverse variation   the relationship of two variables a and y is there is a nonzero number a such that y=a/x. if y+a/x,  
🗑
best-fit line   the line that most closely follows a trend in data , found using technology  
🗑
negative correlation    
🗑
positive correlation    
🗑
regression line   the most accurate best-fit line for a set of data, and can be determined with a graphing calculator  
🗑
scatter plot   a graph used to determine whether there is a relationship or trend between paired data  
🗑


   

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.
