4. Function The simpliest form of a familu of functions, such as Y= x^2 or Y= |X|. It maintains the same highest degree and basic shape before any transformation are applied.
5. It tells you how many times to multiply a base number. This small superscript value indicates a power
8. the Square This algebraic technique transforms a quadratic expression like x^2+bx into a perfect square trinomial. It involves taking half of the coefficient and squarng it to add to both sides of the equations.
13. Number It is the square root of a negative value. Often represented by the letter "i" in equations
15. formula This algebraic tool computes the roots of a polynomial of degree two. It uses the formula -b plus minus radical b^2-4ac divided by 2 to find the x intercepts
16. Root It is a number that when multiplied by itself. produces a specified value for instance the answer to 9 is 3
18. An algebraic expression consisting of variables and coefficents combined using addition, subtraction and multiplication.
19. Behavior This tells you how a function behaves as X approaches positive or negative infinity. It can be express as x-> infinity, f(x) -> infinity
20. Intercept Form This linear equation is written as Y=mx+b. It clearly shows the gradient and the point where the line crosses the vertical axis

1. The point where a line chooses the vertical axis on a graph. It is the value of b in the equation Y=mx+b
2. terms These algebraic components share the exact same variables and exponents. They can be added or subtracted together
3. This number is written as a small superscript to show how many times a base is multiplied by itself. Common examples include "squared or cubed" which indicates the degree to which a value is raised
6. A u- shaped curve defined by a quadratic equation. It is a cone sectiom formed by intersecting a cone with a plane parallel to its side
7. A number that is multiplied by a variable, such as 3 in 3x. It acts as a numerical factor in an algebraic term
9. Equation An equation whose graph is a straight line. It typically takes the form Ax+By=C
10. Form A quadratic equation written as Y= a(x-h)^2+K. It highlights the max or minimum point of a parabola
11. It defines a rule relating an input to exactly one output. This mathmatical machine ensures every X has only one Y
12. An unknown quantity, often represented by a letter. It is a symbol that changes value depending on the equation
14. Value It represents a numbers distance from zero on a number line. This value is always positive
17. This represents the steepness of a line on a graph. It is calculated as the vertical change divided by the horizontal change
