The words 'intersect' and 'linear' are related to graphs, but what do they mean? Graphs illustrate information that would be unwieldy in text form and act as visual shorthands for everyday concepts.
In this Math quiz we look at some of the terms you are likely to encounter in the world of graphs.
1 .
Which of these could not be shown on a 'distance-time graph'?
The number of people on a journey

Distance-time graphs are sometimes called 'travel graphs'
2 .

The squared sign: 2
The cubed sign: 3
The power of 4 sign: 4

The starting-point of a line

Figures in brackets are always for the y axis
The x axis value, then the y axis value
The y axis value, then the x axis value
It is just SO IMPORTANT to remember this: 'x comes before y in the alphabet and the x axis figure comes before the y axis figure'
