What is the range of a relation?

Back

The range of a relation is the set of all possible output values (y-values) that correspond to the input values (x-values).

Front

How do you find the range from a set of ordered pairs?

Back

To find the range, list all the unique y-values from the ordered pairs.

What does it mean for a function to be increasing?

Back

A function is increasing if, as the input (x) values increase, the output (y) values also increase.

Front

What does it mean for a function to be decreasing?

Back

A function is decreasing if, as the input (x) values increase, the output (y) values decrease.

Front

What is a function?

Back

A function is a special type of relation where each input (x) is associated with exactly one output (y).

What is a linear function?

Back

A linear function is a function that graphs to a straight line and can be expressed in the form y = mx + b, where m is the slope and b is the y-intercept.
