Study Notes
Algebra Vocabulary Study Notes
-
Domain: Refers to all possible input values for a function.
-
Decreasing: A line is characterized as decreasing when the slope is negative.
-
Axis: The Cartesian plane consists of an x-axis and a y-axis.
-
Slope: Defined as the change in the y-coordinate divided by the change in the x-coordinate.
-
Model: A linear model is used to represent real-world situations through mathematical equations.
-
Run: In relation to slope, it is often described as "rise over run," representing the horizontal change.
-
Zero: A horizontal line has a slope of zero, indicating no change in y-values.
-
Undefined: A vertical line has an undefined slope due to the lack of horizontal change.
-
Rise: The steepness of a line is determined by the rise (change in y) over the run (change in x).
-
Independent Variable: Typically represents the x variable in a mathematical function.
-
Constant: In the equation Ax + By = C, C is considered a constant.
-
Term: In the equation format Ax + By = C, both Ax and By qualify as terms.
-
Standard Form: The equation Ax + By = C illustrates the standard form of a linear equation.
-
Dependent Variable: Commonly describes the y variable in a relationship where its value depends on the independent variable.
-
Linear Equation: Recognized for having a constant rate of change.
-
Change: Slope is synonymous with the rate of change in a linear relationship.
-
Coefficient: In Ax + By = C, A and B are examples of coefficients.
-
Graph: The graphical representation of a linear equation is a straight line.
-
Horizontal Line: Exhibits a slope of zero, indicating no vertical change.
-
Ordered Pair: An ordered pair represents a set of coordinates, typically written as (x, y).
-
Quadrant: There are four sections in a coordinate plane, categorized as quadrants.
-
Table: Represents a systematic display of input (x values) and output (y values) in rows and columns.
-
Vertical Line: Characterized by an undefined slope, indicating no horizontal change.
-
Range: Encompasses all possible output values from a given function.
-
Origin: The point (0,0) on the Cartesian plane serves as the reference point from which all coordinates are measured.
-
Line: Defined mathematically by two distinct points.
-
Increasing: A line is considered increasing if it has a positive slope.
-
Negative Slope: A line is termed decreasing, indicating it has a negative slope.
-
Coordinate Plane: Also referred to as a Cartesian plane, which is a two-dimensional surface for graphing functions.
-
Rate of Change: This term is synonymous with slope, indicating how much y changes with respect to x.
-
Positive Slope: An increasing line is associated with a positive slope, reflecting upward movement.
