Quadratic Equations

200

The form written as y=ax²+bx+c.

What is Standard Form?

400

This shape is used to describe the graph of a quadratic equation. It is either a big u-like shape or an n-like shape depending on the quadratic equation

What is a Parabola?

600

The y-intercept in the standard form for quadratic equations.

What is c?

800

The formula to find the vertex of a standard form quadratic equation.

What is -b over 2a?

1000

This formula is used to give the solution of ax²+bx+c=0, where a is not 0.

What is the quadratic formula?

-b±√(b²-4ac)

^{_______________}

       2a

Exponents

200

This rule states that the powers of two exponents should be added.

What is the rule when multiplying exponents with the same bases; product rule?

400

The form written as y=a*b^^x.

What is an exponential function written in standard form?

600

The term for when an expoenential function decreases over time because the base in the equation is less than 1.

What is exponential decay?

800

This rule states that a number, a, to the power of 1 divided by another number, n, is always equal to a radical n. a^1/n=ⁿ√a

What is the fractional exponent rule?

1000

While one rule states that the bases are to be multiplied, the other is about adding the powers.

What is the difference between the product rule (multiply exponents with the same bases) and the power of a product rule (multiply exponents with the same powers)?

Functions

200

This always has exactly one output for each input.

What is a Function?

400

The distance of a value from zero on a number line, is usually denoted as |n|.

What is absolute value?

600

The point where a graph of a function crosses the horizontal axis.

What is horizontal intercept (x-intercept)?

800

The set of all the possible outputs and inputs for a function.

What are domain and range?

1000

A function using multiple different expressions for different pieces of the graph.

What is a piecewise function?

Systems of Equations

200

A coordinate pair (x and y values) that makes both equations in a system true. On a graph of the system, the point where the lines intersect.

What is the solution to a system of equations?

400

A method of solving a system of two equations with two variables where you add or subtract a multiple of one equation to another in order to get an equation with only one of the variables (thus eliminating the other variable).

What is the elimination method?

600

A method of solving a system of equations where you substitute a variable for an expression that it is equal to in order to solve the equation when only one variable remains.

What is the substitution method?

800

Two systems whose lines overlap and share the same solution set.

What are equivalent systems?

1000

When a system of linear equations has two different equations with the same slope but different y-intercepts, this is the result.

What is no solution?

Statistics

200

A distribution where one side of the distribution has more values farther from the bulk of the data than the other side, so that the mean is not equal to the median.

What is skewed distribution?

400

The difference between the y-value for a point in a scatter plot and the y-value predicted by the line of best fit.

What is residual?

600

A non-statistical question can be defined as this.

What is a question with no variability (a question with one answer)?

800

A distribution of data with values evenly distributed throughout the range.

What is uniform distribution?

1000

A version of a two-way table in which the value in each cell is divided by the total number of responses in the entire table or by the total number of responses in a row or column.

What is a relative frequency table?
