What is an x-intercept?

The x-intercept is the point where a line crosses the x-axis, found by setting y = 0 in the equation.

What is a y-intercept?

The y-intercept is the point where a line crosses the y-axis, found by setting x = 0 in the equation.

What is slope?

The slope (m) of a line measures its steepness and direction, calculated as the change in y divided by the change in x.

What is direct variation?

Direct variation occurs when two variables increase or decrease together at a constant ratio, represented as y = kx, where k is the constant of variation.

Study Notes

Ordered Pairs and Solutions

  • An ordered pair (2, -4/5) does not satisfy the equation 5x + 3y = 2, leading to 7 3/5 ≠ 2.

Intercepts

  • The x-intercept of the equation 4x + 5y = 8 is found at x = 2.
  • The y-intercept of the equation 7 - 12x = 3y is y = 7/3.

Slope Calculation

  • The slope (m) of the line through points (-10, -7) and (1, -2) is calculated as m = -5/11.
  • To achieve a slope of 2/3 through the points (6, y) and (3, 3), the value of y must be 5.

Average Rate of Change

  • From 1999 ($30 million profit) to 2005 ($210 million profit), the average rate of change in profit is $30 million per year, representing the linear growth over 6 years.

Direct Variation

  • Direct variation between variables x and y can be described by the equation y = -7x, using the values x = -6 and y = 42 for derivation.

Conditions for Direct Variation

  • For a relationship to be classified as direct variation, two conditions must be met:
    • The y-intercept must be equal to 0.
    • The graph of the function displays a straight line passing through the origin.

Parallel Lines Assessment

  • The functions f(x) = 3x + 2 and f(x) = 1/3x + 4 do not represent parallel lines as their slopes differ.

Function Evaluation

  • Evaluating the function f(x) = -7x - 3 at x = -17 results in an ordered pair (-17, 116).
