What is an Input & Output Table?

Back

An Input & Output Table is a mathematical tool used to show how a set of inputs relates to a set of outputs. It helps in understanding functions and relationships between numbers.

Front

What does the term 'input' refer to in an Input & Output Table?

Back

The 'input' refers to the value that is put into a function or process to produce an output.

Front

What does the term 'output' refer to in an Input & Output Table?

Back

The 'output' is the result or value that comes out of a function or process after the input is applied.

Front

How do you find the output for a given input in an Input & Output Table?

Back

To find the output, you apply the function or rule defined for the table to the input value.

Front

If the input is 5 and the function is to multiply by 2, what is the output?

Back

The output is 10, because 5 multiplied by 2 equals 10.

Front

What is a function rule?

Back

A function rule is a specific operation or set of operations that defines how to convert an input into an output.

Front

If the function rule is 'add 3', what is the output for an input of 4?

Back

The output is 7, because 4 plus 3 equals 7.

Front

What is the output for the inputs 6 and 10 if the function rule is 'multiply by 2 and then add 4'?

Back

The outputs are 16 for input 6 (6*2 + 4) and 24 for input 10 (10*2 + 4).

Front

How can you represent an Input & Output Table?

Back

An Input & Output Table can be represented in a grid format with two columns: one for inputs and one for outputs.

Front

What is the output for the input of -4 if the function rule is 'subtract 2'?

Back

The output is -6, because -4 minus 2 equals -6.
