Module 6 Flashcards
Linear equation
Any equation who solutions for my straight line on a coordinate plane
Bivariate data
A set of data that is made of two paired variables
Nonlinear relationship
A relationship between two variables in which the data does not increase or decrease together at the same time
Function
An input-output relationship that has exactly one output for each input
Input
The value substituted into an expression or function
Linear function
A function whose graph is a straight line
Output
The value that results from the substitution of a given input into an expression or function
Nonlinear function
A function whose graph is not a straight line
Proportional relationship
A relationship between two quantities in which the ratio of one quantity to the other quantity is constant
Y intercept
The y-coordinate of the point where the graph of the line crosses the Y axis
Domain
The set of all possible input values of a function; the set of X cornets in relation
Range
The set of all possible output values of a function; the set of y coordinates in a relation
Independent variable
The input of a function; the variable whose value determines the value of the output, or dependent variable
Dependent variable
The output of a function; a variable whose value depends on the value of the input or independent variable
