  2. Linear equation - Wikipedia

    en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Linear_equation

    If b = 0, the line is a vertical line (that is a line parallel to the y-axis) of equation =, which is not the graph of a function of x. Similarly, if a ≠ 0, the line is the graph of a function of y, and, if a = 0, one has a horizontal line of equation =.

  3. Linear function (calculus) - Wikipedia

    en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Linear_function_(calculus)

    The features of the graph = = + can be interpreted in terms of the variables x and y. The y -intercept is the initial value y = f ( 0 ) = b {\displaystyle y=f(0)=b} at x = 0 {\displaystyle x=0} . The slope a measures the rate of change of the output y per unit change in the input x .

  4. Linear function - Wikipedia

    en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Linear_function

    where a and b are constants, often real numbers. The graph of such a function of one variable is a nonvertical line. a is frequently referred to as the slope of the line, and b as the intercept. If a > 0 then the gradient is positive and the graph slopes upwards. If a < 0 then the gradient is negative and the graph slopes downwards.

  5. Slope - Wikipedia

    Slope illustrated for y = (3/2)x − 1.Click on to enlarge Slope of a line in coordinates system, from f(x) = −12x + 2 to f(x) = 12x + 2. The slope of a line in the plane containing the x and y axes is generally represented by the letter m, [5] and is defined as the change in the y coordinate divided by the corresponding change in the x coordinate, between two distinct points on the line.

  6. Log–log plot - Wikipedia

    en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Log–log_plot

    In science and engineering, a log–log graph or log–log plot is a two-dimensional graph of numerical data that uses logarithmic scales on both the horizontal and vertical axes. Power functions – relationships of the form y = a x k {\displaystyle y=ax^{k}} – appear as straight lines in a log–log graph, with the exponent corresponding to ...

  7. Graph of a function - Wikipedia

    en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Graph_of_a_function

    Given a function: from a set X (the domain) to a set Y (the codomain), the graph of the function is the set [4] = {(, ()):}, which is a subset of the Cartesian product.In the definition of a function in terms of set theory, it is common to identify a function with its graph, although, formally, a function is formed by the triple consisting of its domain, its codomain and its graph.

  9. Distance between two parallel lines - Wikipedia

    en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Distance_between_two...

    Because the lines are parallel, the perpendicular distance between them is a constant, so it does not matter which point is chosen to measure the distance.
