Slope fields are graphical representations of differential equations that show the slope at various points on a plane. They help visualize the behavior and solutions of differential equations.
Similar to slope fields, direction fields also represent the behavior of solutions to differential equations but focus on indicating the direction rather than the exact slope at each point.
This notation represents a general form of a first-order ordinary differential equation, where y is dependent on x and its derivative dy/dx is equal to some function f(x,y).
A mathematical equation that relates an unknown function with its derivatives. It describes rates of change and helps model various phenomena in science and engineering.
