100

Which variable is the inputs

X

100

Is the following relation a function? 

(1, 0), (2, 2), (3, 4)?

Yes

100

y=__x+b

m

100

y = mx + __

b

100

y = 5x + 2

Linear

200

Which variable is the outputs

y

200

Is the following relation a function? Justify your answer.

(1, 1), (4, 1), (5, 2), (1, 2), (2, 5)?

No, the value of 1 repeats. 

200

____ over ____

rise over run

200

If the y-intercept is the origin, x will = ___.

0

200

y = 1/2 x - 7

Linear

300

This word describes a relation that pairs each x value with only one y value.

Function

300

Does the following table represent a function? Justify your answer. 
x      y
1      2
2      5
6      2
2      9
5      1

No, the value of 2 repeats. 


300

A _____ line has an undefined slope.

vertical line

300

The y-intercept is the point where a line _____ the y-axis.

crosses or intersects

300

y = 4/3x2 

Justify your response. 

Nonlinear - x can not be in the denominator or have an exponent other than 0 or 1. 

400

What is the diagram with two ovals and arrows called

mapping

400

Is this a function and why?

No, because the x's repeat at 8 OR it does not pass the vertical line test

400

A _____ line has a slope equal to 0.

horizontal line

400

What's my y-intercept?

-3

400

y = x3

Justify your answer. 

Nonlinear - This is a cubic function

500

This term identifies the variable that changes based upon the other variable in a function.

Dependent Variable

500

Is this a function and why?

Yes, because the x's are all different OR it would pass the vertical line test.

500

The slope tells me how much ____ changes as ___ changes.

Y changes as X changes

500

What's my y-intercept?

4

500

2x + 3y = 7 

Linear - It is in standard form.
