Study Notes

Linear Equations

The slope and y-intercept of a linear equation are easiest to identify in slope-intercept form (y = mx + b).
A negative slope indicates a downward slope, meaning as the input increases, the output decreases.

Standard Form of Linear Equations

The standard form of a linear equation in two variables is Ax + By = C, where A, B, and C are integers.

Quadratic Equations

The general form of a quadratic equation is ax^2 + bx + c = 0, where a, b, and c are constants.
The discriminant (b^2 - 4ac) of a quadratic equation determines the number of solutions:
- Positive discriminant indicates two distinct solutions.
- Zero discriminant indicates one solution.
- Negative discriminant indicates no real solutions.
The quadratic formula (x = (-b ± √(b^2 - 4ac)) / 2a) is used to find the solutions of a quadratic equation.
