What is the domain of a relation?

Back

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

Front

What is the range of a relation?

Back

The range of a relation is the set of all possible output values (y-values) that result from the relation.

How do you find the domain of a given relation?

Back

To find the domain, identify all the first elements (x-values) in the ordered pairs of the relation.

How do you find the range of a given relation?

Back

To find the range, identify all the second elements (y-values) in the ordered pairs of the relation.

What is an ordered pair?

Back

An ordered pair is a pair of elements (x, y) where the first element is the input and the second element is the output.

What is the vertical line test?

Back

The vertical line test is a method to determine if a relation is a function by checking if any vertical line intersects the graph of the relation at more than one point.

What is the significance of the point (0, 0) in a coordinate system?

Back

The point (0, 0) is known as the origin, where the x-axis and y-axis intersect.
