Algebra Vocabulary Crossword Puzzle

QUESTIONS LIST:

• asymptote : a line that continually approaches a given curve but does not meet it at any finite distance
• exponential growth : growth whose rate becomes ever more rapid in proportion to the growing total number or size.
• slope : rate of change
• quadratic : this function is one of the form f(x) = ax2 + bx + c, where a, b, and c are numbers with a not equal to zero.
• vertex form : is given by. f (x) = a(x - h)2 + k, where (h, k) is the vertex of the parabola.
• linear function : any function that graphs to a straight line.
• slope intercept form : this form is called y = mx + b
• point slope form : (y - y1) = m(x - x1)
• exponential : a function whose value is a constant raised to the power of the argument, especially the function where the constant is e
• foil : a technique for distributing two binomials
• y intercept : where a function crosses the y-axis
• vertex : the point where the parabola crosses its axis of symmetry
• zeros : where the function crosses the x-axis
• exponential decay : the total value decreases but the proportion that leaves remains constant over time.
• axis of symmetry : a line of symmetry for a graph
