WGU - D126 - MATHEMATICS FOR
ELEMENTARY EDUCATORS 2025/ 2026
QUESTIONS WITH VERIFIED
ANSWERS
Independent Variable - correct answer -The variable that may be
the cause of some result, or is presented as variable that offers
an explanation. Also called an explanatory variable.
slope-intercept form - correct answer -A common format for a
linear equation. It is of the form y = mx + b, where m is the slope
of the line and b is the y-intercept.
number line - correct answer -A line in which points are matched
to real numbers. The numbers increase in value as you move to
the right.
y-axis - correct answer -The vertical line that passes through the
origin on a coordinate plane.
, decreasing - correct answer -Describes a line when X- and Y-
coordinates are both reducing in value when moving from the left
to the right on a graph. This is associated with a negative slope.
linear inequality - correct answer -Incorporates inequality signs.
slope - correct answer -The value that describes the direction and
steepness of a line drawn on the coordinate plane.
solution set - correct answer -Group of all values that satisfy a
mathematical statement. Values that satisfy an equation or
inequality.
coordinates - correct answer -Identifies the location of the point in
relation to axes on a graph. The x- and y-value of a point.
x-axis - correct answer -The horizontal line that passes through
the origin on a coordinate plane.
