How can you determine if a graph represents a function?

Back

A graph represents a function if any vertical line drawn through the graph intersects it at most once (Vertical Line Test).

Front

What is the Vertical Line Test?

Back

The Vertical Line Test is a method to determine if a graph is a function by checking if any vertical line crosses the graph more than once.

What is an ordered pair?

Back

An ordered pair is a pair of numbers (x, y) that represent a point on a graph, where 'x' is the input and 'y' is the output.
