Definition
A horizontal line.[image] |
|
|
Term
What is the slope of the line y = -2? |
|
Definition
0 because it is a horizontal line. |

Term
What is the slope of a vertical line? |
|
Definition
[image] No slope or undefined. |
|
|
Term
[image] Does this line have a positive or negative slope? |
|
Definition
Negative. The line falls from left to right. |

Term
How do you find slope of a line on a graph? |
|
Definition
|
|
Term
How do you find slope when you are given 2 coordinate points or a table? |
|
Definition
|
|
Term
How can you graph a linear equation? |
|
Definition
You can graph a linear equation by making a table, picking numbers for x then solve for y. OR you can graph using the b, y intercept and m slope. |

Term
What do you know about the slope of parallel lines? |
|
Definition
|
|
Term
What do you know about the slope of perpendicular lines? |
|
Definition
[image] The slopes will be OPPOSITE RECIPROCALS. |
|
|
Term
Two lines are parallel. If the slope of the first line is 3, what is the slope of the second line? |
|
Definition
3 because parallel lines have the same slope. |
|
|
Term
Two lines are perpendicular. If the slope of the first line is -5/4, what is the slope of the second line. |
|
Definition
4/5. Opposite reciprocals. |
|
|
Term
How do you know that two intersecting lines are perpendicular? |
|
Definition
They form 90° angles. [image] |
|
|
Term
What does opposite reciprocal mean? |
|
Definition
to flip a fraction and change the sign. Example 2/3 becomes -3/2. |
|
|
Term
How can you determine that a relationship on a graph is direct variation proportional? |
|
Definition
The line will go through the point (0,0) and the line will be straight due to the constant rate of change. |
|
|
Term
How can you determine if an equation direct variation proportional? |
|
Definition
The equation will be in the from y = mx. Example y = 2x. |
|
|
Term
How can you determine if a table has a direct variation proportional relationship? |
|
Definition
[image] The table will be linear meaning that is has a constant rate of change and one of the points will be (0,0) Careful! You may need to work backwards using the pattern to see the point (0,0) |
