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.

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

What does it mean for a function to be increasing?

Back

A function is increasing on an interval if, for any two points in that interval, the function's value at the second point is greater than at the first.

Front

What does it mean for a function to be decreasing?

Back

A function is decreasing on an interval if, for any two points in that interval, the function's value at the second point is less than at the first.

Front

What is a maximum value of a function?

Back

The maximum value of a function is the highest point on the graph of the function within a given interval.

Front

What is a minimum value of a function?

Back

The minimum value of a function is the lowest point on the graph of the function within a given interval.

Front

What is a one-to-one function?

Back

A one-to-one function is a function where each output is produced by exactly one input, meaning no two different inputs map to the same output.

What is a 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 more than once.

Front

What is an increasing interval?

Back

An increasing interval is a range of x-values over which the function's output values are rising.
