Isn't the horizontal change in a line the slope? I have to do this crossword puzzle for freaking math class but it says the answer is only 3 letters. :confused:

The horizontal change in a line is only part of the slope. The slope is the change in the rise over the change in the run (the latter being the horizontal change).

But um...I don't know four-letter word that would be...

Yes! It's run! OMG THANK YOU SO MUCH.

Yes, slope. I can't think of any 3-letter words to describe it...

-edit-

Yeah, run. "rise over run." I haven't heard that term since high school. :crazy:

What is a test used to determine if a given graphis is a function.

I'll type up the rest of them I'm having trouble with after if anyone wants to help. There are alot of them. :lol:

yeah..

Oooh...three letters. Thought it was four.

Well there's the "vertical line" test..uhh..what else...

I did put 4 at first. :lol:

The vertical line test?

Thank you. :D


Ok....here's the rest. :lol:

*the point of intersection of the two axes in the coordinate plane
*one of four regions into wh ich the x- and the y-axes separate the coordinate plane
*the _____ plane contains the x and y axis
*the set of all second numbers in the relation (I know the first numbers are domain, but I forgot the second ones)
*the coordinate at which a graph intersects the x-axis
*the coordinate at which a graph intersect the y-axis
*the horizontal number line
*the vertical number line
*a set of ordered pairs (I can't believe I forgot what it's called :lol: )
*numbers used to locate points in the coordinae plane
*the pairing of oen element in the domain with one element in the range
*the ratio of the rise to the run as you move from one point to another along a line

*the point of intersection of the two axes in the coordinate plane - origin
*one of four regions into wh ich the x- and the y-axes separate the coordinate plane - sector(s) I think
*the _____ plane contains the x and y axis- coordinate
*the set of all second numbers in the relation (I know the first numbers are domain, but I forgot the second ones) -range

*the ratio of the rise to the run as you move from one point to another along a line - slope

Wow, I'm drawing a blank on a lot of these.

(0,_)? i don't know.

*numbers used to locate points in the coordinae plane
ordered pairs?

uhh.. slope?

Thanks everyone. :)

Yay I'm done. :woohoo: <3

Its funny to think that everybody was helping you with your homework:lol:

Haha Jackie, you effin cheater ;)

"You didn't do these yourself. Who did?"
You say
"A few people at Sitcoms Online":lol:

OMG that made my head swell. Its sad Ive been out of school for 2.5 years and all of that seems foreign to me. Not that I understood it back then either, but...
