Function or not?

Front

What is a function in mathematics?

Back

A function is a relation that assigns exactly one output for each input from a given set.

Front

What is the definition of a relation?

Back

A relation is a set of ordered pairs, where each pair consists of an input and an output.

Front

How can you determine if a relation is a function?

Back

A relation is a function if no two ordered pairs have the same first element with different second elements.

Front

What is the vertical line test?

Back

The vertical line test is a method to determine if a graph represents a function; if a vertical line intersects the graph at more than one point, it is not a function.

Front

What does it mean for a relation to be 'not a function'?

Back

A relation is 'not a function' if there exists at least one input that corresponds to multiple outputs.

Front

Can a function have the same output for different inputs?

Back

Yes, a function can have the same output for different inputs, as long as each input has only one output.

Front

What is the domain of a function?

Back

The domain of a function is the set of all possible input values (x-values) for which the function is defined.

Front

What is the range of a function?

Back

The range of a function is the set of all possible output values (y-values) that the function can produce.

Front

What is an example of a function?

Back

An example of a function is f(x) = 2x + 3, where each input x produces a unique output.

Front

What is an example of a relation that is not a function?

Back

An example of a relation that is not a function is {(1, 2), (1, 3)}, where the input 1 corresponds to two different outputs.
