    ftr it appears to be popular now to habitually refer to the first derivative of position as velocity, but i was raised to call it speed if it’s a scalar and velocity if it’s a vector, and y = mx + c does not say “vector” to me

        No time information, no velocity or speed.

        My people used to put it as y = mx + b. A lot of them where physicists tho. This y = mx + the speed of light business is interesting

        A scalar is a vector in a one-dimensional space, like a set of train tracks.

        If scalars had a scalarity dimension, what would you get if you multiplied the scalarity unit vector by a geometric unit vector?

        Similar situation here, but I was taught with context dependence. Refer to it as a vector if the direction was relevant and speed if the absolute value was. the scalar just encorprates the i and j part of the vector in the slope intercept form

        In this house, we know the difference between ( x + y + z ) and sqrt( x*x + y*y + z*z ).
