UP:MA19.7A.24

Vocabulary

  • x-intercepts
  • y-intercepts
  • Point of intersection
  • One solution

Knowledge

Students know:
  • That a point of intersection between two linear functions represents one solution to those functions.

Skills

Students are able to:
  • Use mathematical language to explain why the x-coordinates are the same at intersection for y = f(x) and y = g(x).

Understanding

Students understand that:
  • That in cases of a system of linear equations, there is sometimes only one, common point for each one that yields a solution. This is different from previous experiences with single linear equations where every point on its line is a solution set.
