Cards in this deck (11)
- 1Horizontal LineA line that is parallel to the x-axis; a straight line that runs from side-to-side.
- 2Vertical lineA line that is parallel to the y-axis; a straight line that rises up-and-down.
- 3Linear EquationAn equation that makes a straight line when graphed on a coodinate plane.
- 4Line of Best FitAlso called a trend line, a straight line that best represents the points on a scatterplot
- 5ScatterplotA type of graph where corresponding values from a set of data are placed as points on a coordinate plane.
- 6SlopeAlso called rate of change, it is the steepness of a line represented by the ratio of rise over run.
- 7Slope FormulaThe formula for finding the rate of change by determining the difference between two coordinate pairs.
- 8Slope-Intercept fFormAn equation representing a linear function
written as y=mx+b where m is the slope, b is the intercept and x and y are the coordinate pair. - 9Undefined SlopeThe slope of a verticle line.
- 10Zero SlopeThe slope of a horizontal line.
- 11y-interceptthe point where a line intersects, or crosses, the y-axis.
