Description

an equation between two variables that gives a straight line when plotted on a graph
a line in a plane containing the x axis and the y axis is generally represented by the letter m and is defined as the change in the y coordinate between two distinct points on the line
the principal or horizontal axis of a system of coordinates, points along which have a value of zero for all other coordinates
the secondary or vertical axis of a system of coordinates, points along which have a value of zero for all other coordinates
on the flat coordinate plane, there are two axes ,the origin is the point where they intersect
When the equation is written as (y=mx+b) the slope is the number “m” that is multiplied on the x , and “b” is the y- intercept, where the line crosses over the y-axis
- the x coordinate of a point where a line, curve, or surface intersects the x-axis
the way of writing the the equation of a line slope and y-intercept are immediately apparent
to be able to write the equation a line in standard form, the standard form of a line is in the form (ax+by=c) where A is a positive integer ,and B, and C, are integers
the quantitative relationship between two amounts showing the number of times one value
a name we give to a statement where two ratios are equal
- a comparison of two different quantities when they are combined together
cost per liter, kilogram, pound, etc. Divide the cost by quantity
a relationship between two variables in which one is a constant multiple of the other . I'm particular, when one variable changes the other changes in proportion to the first
- a function is any relationship between inputs and outputs In which each input leads to exactly one output , the independent variable
the dependant variable
a collection of ordered pairs
the relationship between any set of inputs and permissible outputs
the set of inputs which the function is defined
the difference between the highest and lowest values
mathematical method of performing a calculation or solving a problem
a visual way to determine if a curve is a graph of a function or not
any function that graphs to a straight line
- a function that is not a linear function
a variable whose value depends upon an independant variables
a variable that represents a quantity that is being manipulated in an experiment
a ratio between a change in one variable relative to a corresponding change in another

Frequently Asked Questions

What is a crossword?

Crossword puzzles have been published in newspapers and other publications since 1873. They consist of a grid of squares where the player aims to write words both horizontally and vertically.

Next to the crossword will be a series of questions or clues, which relate to the various rows or lines of boxes in the crossword. The player reads the question or clue, and tries to find a word that answers the question in the same amount of letters as there are boxes in the related crossword row or line.

Some of the words will share letters, so will need to match up with each other. The words can vary in length and complexity, as can the clues.

Who is a crossword suitable for?

The fantastic thing about crosswords is, they are completely flexible for whatever age or reading level you need. You can use many words to create a complex crossword for adults, or just a couple of words for younger children.

Crosswords can use any word you like, big or small, so there are literally countless combinations that you can create for templates. It is easy to customise the template to the age or learning level of your students.
