Question
Answer
Absolute Value of a Number   The distance the number is from zero on a number line  
🗑
Extraneous Solution   A solution found when solving an absolute value equation that isn't a true solution. (Found when testing values)  
🗑
Standard Form for an Absolute Value Function   f(x)= a|mx+b|+c  
🗑
Parent Function   The simplest form of an equation, such as: y=x or y=|x|  
🗑
Translation   Shifts (slides) the graph vertically, horizontally or both. The size and shape of the graph stays the same.  
🗑
Horizontal translation to the left   y= |x+h|  
🗑
Horizontal translation to the right   y=|x-h|  
🗑
Vertical translation up   y=|x|+k  
🗑
Vertical translation down   y=|x|-k  
🗑
Combined translation up and right   y=|x-h|+k  
🗑
Combined translation up and left   y=|x+h|+k  
🗑
Combined translation down and right   y=|x-h|-k  
🗑
Combined translation down and left   y=|x+h|-k  
🗑
Vertical Stretch of a Graph   Multiplies all the y-values by the same factor (a) that is GREATER than 1 (makes the graph "skinnier")  
🗑
Vertical Shrink of a Graph   Multiplies all the y-values by the same factor (a) that is BETWEEN 0 and 1 (makes the graph "fatter")  
🗑
Reflection of a graph   The graph "flips" vertically over the x-axis because the y-values have all been multiplied by a negative value (-a)  
🗑
Linear Inequality   An equation in two variables (x & y) whose graph is a region of the coordinate plane (shown by shading the solution region) that is bounded by the equation of the line.  
🗑
Absolute Value Inequality   An equation in two variables (x & y) whose graph is a region of the coordinate plane (shown by shading the solution region) that is bounded by the equation of the line.  
🗑


   

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.
