Front

Some call this "y=" form. It is y=mx+b

Back

Axis

Front

Fixed reference lines for the measurement of coordinates.

Back

Discrete

Front

The integers on the number line but not the numbers in between them. Example: IPads, because you can have 1 IPad, 2 Ipads and so forth, but you cannot have 1/2 of an IPad.

Back

Binomial

Front

An equation or expression with only two terms with different numbered exponents.

Back

Parabolic

Front

U-shaped on the graph.

Back

Variable

Front

A letter representing an unknown and changing quantity.

Back

Polynomial

Front

An expression of more than two algebraic terms, especially the sum of several terms that contain different powers of the same variable(s).

Back

Parabola

Front

A -shaped line on a graph formed by the equation y=x^2.

Back

Exponential

Front

Growth happening very fast. The equation for this must have a variable in the exponent spot. The pattern for this is growth by a factor of some number.

Back

Expression

Front

A combination of symbols and terms that look like an equation but are missing an equals sign.

Back

Standard form

Front

The form of a linear equation before it has been solved for y. Ax+By=C

Back

Domain

Front

x values in a function

Back

Functional notation

Front

Commonly f(x) pronounced "f of x."

Back

Independent

Front

A variable denoted by x

Back

Trinomial

Front

An equation or expression with only three terms with different numbered exponents.

Back

Solution

Front

The value of x when solving an equation.

Back

Continuous

Front

Numbers that include all of the integers on the number line, and all the fractional numbers in between. Example: The amount of flour in a mixing bowl. You can have one full cup or 1/2 or even 0.2 cups of flour.

Back

System of linear equations

Front

A collection of two or more equations with the same set of variables. The solution is where the lines for the equations intersect.

Back

Quantity

Front

A certain amount of something.

Back

Monomial

Front

An equation or expression with only one term.

Back

Plot

Front

To place coordinate points in their respective locations on a graph.

Back

Zeros of quadratic

Front

The place where the parabola passes through the x-axis. The name comes from the fact that the y-values at these intercepts are 0.

Back

Linear

Front

A relationship or function that can be represented by a straight line.

Back

Quadratic

Front

Refers to the relationship between two variables, where as one quantity rises (or falls) the other does too, but then goes in the opposite direction up or down.

Back

Inequality

Front

The relation between two expressions that are not equal, employing a sign such as ≠ "not equal to," > "greater than," or < "less than."

Back

Parent function

Front

Equations with the basic building blocks for more complicated equations. Examples of this are y=x and y=x^2.

Back

Slope

Front

A number that measures its "steepness", usually denoted by the letter m. It is the change in y for a unit change in x along the line. Also called rise over run.

Back

Relationship

Front

When one variable quantity appears to change right along with another variable. It could also be one variable causing a change in another.

Back

Area

Front

The number of square units required to cover a surface. Length times width

Back

Dependent

Front

A variable denoted by y

Back

Decreasing Function

Front

The line on the graph is going down from left to right.

Back

Equation

Front

A statement that the values of two mathematical expressions are equal (indicated by the sign =).

Back

Scatter Plot

Front

An x and y-axis graph with a bunch of coordinate points (dots) on it.

Back

X-intercepts of quadratic

Front

The places where the parabola goes through the x-axis. The name comes from the fact that the parabola touches the x-axis.

Back

Function

Front

A relationship or expression involving one or more variables, where each independent value, x (the input) has only one dependent value, y (the output).

Back

Y-intercept

Front

The point where the line goes through the y-axis.

Back

Roots

Front

A place where a parabola passes through the x-axis.

Back

Range

Front

y values in a function

Back

Table

Front

Numbers or quantities arranged in rows and columns.

Back

Intersection

Front

A place where two lines on a graph meet.

Back

Factor

Front

Means to break numbers and equations up into parts that can be multiplied together to get the original number or equation.

Back

X-intercept

Front

The point where the line goes through the x-axis.

Back

Distributive Property

Front

Lets you multiply a sum by multiplying each addend separately and then add the products.

Back

Solution set

Front

A group of numbers that can satisfy an equation or a situation involving a problem.
