1
Q
Linear equation in two variables
A
An equation that can be written in the form y=mxtb where m and b are constants
2
Q
Linear function
A
A function whose graph is a non vertical line,has a constant rate of change and can be written in slope intercept form
3
Q
Nonlinear function
A
A function that does not have a constant rate of change and the graph is not a straight line
4
Q
Slope intercept form
A
The equation is built from using the slope and the y intercept .y=my +b
5
Q
