Across
- 2. a situation where a quantity increases at a rate proportional to its current value
- 4. a transformation that flips a shape or figure across a line, called the line of reflection, creating a mirror image
- 6. the difference between an observed value and the value predicted by a model
- 7. a value that helps determine the nature of the roots (solutions) of a polynomial equation, particularly quadratic and cubic equations
- 11. a part of a whole
- 13. a function that maps a set of points to another set of points, often with some geometrical underpinning
- 14. the movement of a graph up or down along the y-axis while keeping the x-values the same
- 15. the set of all possible input values (x-values) for which the function is defined
Down
- 1. the process of solving a system of simultaneous equations by by using various techniques to remove variables successfully
- 3. the solutions or "roots" of an equation, function, or polynomial, where the function's value equals zero
- 5. uses dots to represent values for two different numeric variables
- 8. the change in the vertical distance (y-value) divided by the change in the horizontal distance (x-value) between two points on the line
- 9. the fee charged by a lender to a borrower for the use of borrowed money, typically expressed as a percentage of the principal amount
