A statement formed by interchanging the hypothesis and the conclusion of the conditional. The converse of a true statement is not necessarily true
Converse
An equation of a non vertical line written in y-y1=m(x-x1) where the line passes through a given point (x1,y1) and has a slope of m
Point-slope form
Two lines in the same plane that intersect to form a right angle
Perpendicular
A graph used to determine whether there is a relationship or trend between paired data
Scatter plot
The relationship between paired data. The paired data have positive correlation if y trends to increase as x increases negative correlation tends to decrease as x increases and relatively no correlation if x and y have no apparent relationship
Correlation
A line used to model the trend in data having a positive or negative correlation
Line of fit
The line that most follows a trend in data found using technology
Best- fitting line
The process of finding the best fitting line to model a set of data
Linear regression
Using a line or it’s equation to approximate a value between two known values
Interpolation
Using a line or it’s equation to approximate a value outside the range of known values
Extrapolation
An x-value for which f(x)=0 (or y=0)
Zero of a function
