Unit 1 vocabulary
Across
- 2. Uses parenthesis or brackets and defines Domain and Range using the minimum and maximum values
- 4. Slope which increases from left to right; y = mx +b
- 7. Uses curly brackets and defines a variable using inequality symbols
- 10. A linear equation written in the form of y = mx + b, where m is the slope and b is the y-intercept
- 12. Graph is a horizontal line which only touches the y-axis; m = 0 because shows a constant rate with no change; y = b
- 17. the basic function where the graph is free from any transformations
- 18. A function whose graph is a straight line
- 21. Any set of ordered pairs.
- 22. A visual way to determine if a graph is a function or not. If the line touches the graph in more than one point, the graph is not a function.
- 23. A mathematical sentence that contains an equal sign
- 25. the behavior of the graph of f(x) as x approaches positive infinity or negative infinity
Down
- 1. The y-coordinate of the point where the graph crosses or touches the y-axis
- 3. Defines the terms in an arithmetic sequence by finding each term BEFORE it
- 5. Helps find ANY term in an arithmetic sequence
- 6. An equation in the form of 'f(x)=' to show the output value of a function, f, for an input value x; Same as y: Read as “function of x”
- 8. Graph is a vertical line which only touches the x-axis; No slope AND No y-intercept; x = # (X-intercept)
- 9. Slope which decreases from left to right; y = -mx +b
- 10. The steepness of a line on a graph; rise over run; change in y over the change in x
- 11. The constant value being added or subtracted to get the next term in an arithmetic sequence
- 13. A sequence in which you get the next consecutive term by adding or subtracting a constant value. In other words, we just add or subtract the same value over and over...infinitely
- 14. When there is only one output (y) for every input (x)
- 15. How far left to how far right your graph goes (x value behavior); Also called input, x-coordinate, and dependent variable
- 16. The x-coordinate of the point where the graph crosses or touches the x-axis
- 19. How far down to how far up your graph goes (y value behavior); Also called output, y-coordinate and independent variable
- 20. An equation in the simplest form of a family of functions
- 24. A linear equation in two variables in the form Ax +By = C, where x is the x-intercept and y is the y-intercept
