Linear Functions and Key Concepts Guide

This document defines key terms and attributes related to linear functions and relationships. A linear relationship is one where the independent and dependent variables form a straight line when graphed. It has a constant rate of change (slope) and only requires two points to find the equation or graph the line. The slope describes the steepness and direction of the line and can be found using any two points. Other attributes defined include the y-intercept, where the line crosses the y-axis, and the x-intercept, where it crosses the x-axis. Equations of a line include the slope-intercept form of y=mx+b and the standard form.
