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 is the domain of a function?

Back

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

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

Is the relation {(1,2), (2,3), (3,4)} a function?

Back

Yes, because each x-value has only one y-value associated with it.

Given the function {(0,1), (1,-3), (2,-4), (-4,1)}, what is the domain?

Back

D: {0, 1, 2, -4}.

Given the function {(0,1), (1,-3), (2,-4), (-4,1)}, what is the range?

Back

R: {1, -3, -4}.

Front

What does it mean for a function to be one-to-one?

Back

A one-to-one function is a function where each output value is paired with exactly one input value.
