origin | the point (0,0) where the x-axis and the y-axis intersect in a coordinate plane |
Slope | Rise over Run. The change in y over the change in x |
Double | Multiply by 2 |
eliminate | to get rid of; do away with |
x-intercept | The point where the line crosses the x-axis |
y-intercept | The point where the line crosses the y-axis |

intersecting lines | Lines that cross at one point |
ordered pair | a pair of numbers that can be used to locate a point on a coordinate plane (x,y) |
Prime Number | A number that has no factor but itself and 1. example 7 is prime. |
Rational Numbers | All positive and negative integers, fractions and decimals that REPEAT or TERMINATE (end). |
