X- coordinate
A pair of numbers that can be used to locate a point on a coordinate plane
Ordered pair
The second number in an ordered pair; it tells the distance to move up or down from the origin
Y-coordinate
An equation whose solutions form a straight line on a coordinate plane
Linear equation
A linear equation written in the form y=mx+b where m represents the slope and b represents the y- intercept
Slop-intercept form an equation
The y-coordinate of the point where the graph of a line crosses the y- axis
Y-intercept
A set of values that make all equations in a system true
Solution of a system of equations
A set of two or more equations that contain 2 variable
System of equations
A measure of the steepness of a line on a graph; the rise divided by the run
Slope
A ratio that compares the amount of change in a dependent variable to the amount of change in an independent variable
Rate of change
A relationship between two quantities in which the ratio of one quantity to the other quantity is constant
