| Question | Answer |
|---|---|
| linear function | Domain does not repeat. Input/output |
| Relation | Domain Repeats |
| Domain | X-values of a function |
| Range | y-Values of a Function |
| Collinear | Points are collinear if they lie on the same line. |
| coordinate plane | The plane determined by a horizontal number line, called the x-axis, and a vertical number line, called the y-axis, intersecting at a point called the origin. |
| Infinity | A limitless quantity. |
| Intercept | The x-intercept of a line or curve is the point where it crosses the x-axis, and the y- intercept of a line or curve is the point where it crosses the y-axis. |
| Parallel | Two lines are parallel if they are in the same plane and never intersect. |
| Perimeter | The sum of the lengths of the sides of a polygon. |
| Perpendicular | Two lines are perpendicular if the angle between them is 90 degrees. |
| Slope | The steepness of a line expressed as a ratio, using any two points on the line. (M) |
| Variable | A letter used to represent a number value in an expression or an equation. |
| x-axis | The horizontal axis in a Cartesian coordinate plane. |
| x-intercept | The value of x at the point where a line or curve crosses the x-axis. |
| y-axis | The vertical axis in a Cartesian coordinate system. |
| y-intercept | The value of y at the point where a curve crosses the y-axis. (b) |
| Standard Form | Ax+By=C |
| SLOPE INTERCEPT FORM | Y = mx+b |
| RATE OF CHANGE | change in dependent variable over independent variable |
| Slope Formula | m=(y2-y1)/(x2-x1) |
| Vertical Line | Slope= undefined |
| Horizontal Line | Slope= zero |
| Arithmetic Sequence | When the difference between each term is constant |
| A1 | First term of the Sequence |
| n | term number of the sequence |
| Common Difference | The amount being added from one term to the next(d) |
| Distance Formula | d=squareroot of (x1-x2)2+(y1-y2)2 |
| Midpoint Formula | M=((x1+x2)over2;(y1+y2)over2) |
| Linear Regression | A trend line that shows the relationship between two sets of data(LINE OF BEST FIT) |
| r | Correlation Coefficient |
| positive correlation | r=1 |
| negative correlation | r=-1 |
| no correlation | r=0 |
