|---|---|
| system of equations | a set of more than one equation with the same variables |
| point of intersection | the solution to a system of equations; the ordered pair that make both equations true |
| proportional | y divided by x is constant; graph contains the origin; y=kx |
| non-proprotional | y divided by x is not constant; graph has a positive or negative y intercept; y=mx+b |
| slope intercept form | the equation of a straight line in the form of y=mx+b |
| y-intercept | the point where a line crosses the y-axis; the y-value when x is zero |
| m | slope or rate of change |
| b | y-intercept |
| slope | a ratio of the change in y values over the change in x values; rise over run |
| y-axis | the vertical number line in the coordinate plane |
