What is a function in mathematics?

Back

A function is a relation that assigns exactly one output for each input. It can be represented as an equation, a graph, or a table.

What is the purpose of a graph in representing a function?

Back

A graph visually represents the relationship between the input (x-axis) and output (y-axis) of a function, making it easier to understand patterns and behaviors.

What are the different types of functions?

Back

Common types of functions include linear, quadratic, exponential, and polynomial functions, each with distinct characteristics.

Front

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.

What does the slope of a line represent in a linear function?

Back

The slope represents the rate of change of the function; it indicates how much the output (y) changes for a unit change in the input (x).

What is the y-intercept in a linear function?

Back

The y-intercept is the point where the graph of the function crosses the y-axis, representing the output value when the input is zero.

Front

How can you determine if a function is increasing or decreasing?

Back

A function is increasing if the output values rise as the input values increase, and decreasing if the output values fall as the input values increase.

Front

What is a quadratic function?

Back

A quadratic function is a polynomial function of degree 2, typically expressed in the form y = ax^2 + bx + c, where a, b, and c are constants.
