How Do You Use a Scatter Plot to Find a Line of Fit?
What is a line-of-fit? Given a data set, plot the ordered pairs on a graph. It looks like a scatter plot. Now estimate, and draw a line that best fits what the data represents. That is your line-of-fit.

What's Point-Slope Form of a Linear Equation?
Show your class what the point-slope form or a linear equation looks like and how to find it with this video. An instructor defines point-slope form and proceeds to work through an example. Great for in-class or at-home use.

How Do You Graph an Exponential Function Using a Table?
One way to get values to be able to graph an exponential function is to make a table. This seems pretty straightforward. Set up a table to plug in random values for x. Then put those values into the equation to get the y-values. These...

What's a Solution to a System of Linear Equations?
Since the focus of this video is on explaining the solution to a system of equations, the lecturer does not work through the problem. Instead, she points out that the solution should be an ordered pair that makes each equation a true...

How Do You Find the X- and Y-Intercepts of a Line If You Have a Graph?
The x-intercept is the point at which the line of the equation crosses the x-axis. The y-intercept is the point at which the line of the same equation crosses the y-axis. It's as easy as that. Look at your graph and note these locations.

What's Positive Correlation?
If the y-value increases as the x-value increases then you have a positive correlation. Meaning that the line-of-fit has a positive slope.
Curated OER
What's Negative Correlation?
If the y-value decreases as the x-value increases then you have a negative correlation. Meaning that the line-of-fit has a negative slope.

How Do You Use a Graph to Translate a Figure Vertically?
Transformations. Learn a little bit of geometry. See how to translate a geometric figure on a coordinate plane vertically by sliding it over. Simply pick a point on the figure and count the units you want to move it. Then repeat that for...

How Do You Use a Graph to Translate a Figure Horizontally?
Transformations. Learn a little bit of geometry. See how to translate a geometric figure on a coordinate plane horizontally by sliding it over. Simply pick a point on the figure and count the units you want to move it. Then repeat that...

How Do You Use a Graph to Reflect a Figure Over the Y-Axis?
A reflection is just what you think it is, a mirror image. So how do you reflect a figure on a graph? Just flip it over. The teacher illustrates how to select a line of reflection (the y-axis) and make the calculations to flip the figure.

What is the Range of a Relation?
The teacher illustrates several ways to look at what the range is in a set of numbers. Input, output, stem and plot table, graphs, and diagrams are a few of the ways in which she illustrates the meaning of range.

What are the Coordinate Axes?
The coordinate axes are the x-axis, which is the horizontal axis, and the y-axis, which is the vertical axis. Remember, these axes go on forever.
Curated OER
What is the Coordinate Plane?
Just a quick diagram and explanation of the parts of the coordinate plane. You might want to remind your class to put arrows on the ends of the x-axis and the y-axis, as these lines go on forever.
