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.

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.

What is the vertical line test?

Back

The vertical line test is a method used 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.

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

Back

An example of a relation that is not a function is y^2 = x, as each x-value can correspond to two y-values.

What is a linear function?

Back

A linear function is a function that can be graphically represented as a straight line, typically in the form f(x) = mx + b.

What does the y-intercept of a linear function represent?

Back

The y-intercept of a linear function is the point where the graph intersects the y-axis, representing the value of y when x = 0.
