(16 cards)

horizontal slope

Front

slope is 0 (no slope or steepness; line is flat)

Back

x-intercept

Front

the coordinate point at which a line intersects the x-axis

Back

coordinate

Front

(x,y); location of a point in the coordinate plane; a.k.a. ordered pair

Back

horizontal line

Front

line that is parallel to the x-axis (left to right); equation is of the form y = a, and a is a constant

Back

origin

Front

(0,0) in the coordinate plane; center of the grid

Back

standard form

Front

linear equation of the form Ax + By = C

Back

slope-intercept form

Front

linear equation of the form y = mx+b

Back

cover method

Front

method for finding x- and y-intercepts of a standard form equation by "covering" the x term to find the y-intercept and "covering" the y term to find the x-intercept

Back

y-intercept

Front

the point where a line crosses the y-axis

Back

coordinate plane

Front

the grid created by the horizontal x-axis and the vertical y-axis

Back

x-axis

Front

the horizontal number line in the coordinate plane (left to right)

Back

y-axis

Front

the vertical number line in the coordinate plane (up and down)

Back

vertical line

Front

line that is parallel to the y-axis (up/down); equation is of the form x = n, where n is a constant

Back

vertical slope

Front

slope is undefined (max steepness -- straight up and down)

Back

linear equation

Front

an equation with two variables; graph is a straight line (no curves)

Back

slope (a.k.a. rate of change)

Front

rise/run; the steepness of a graphed line; formula: (SEE PHOTO)
