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

Which graph does NOT pass the vertical line test?

Back

Graph 1 does not pass the vertical line test.

Front

What does it mean if a graph is a function?

Back

It means that for every x-value, there is one and only one corresponding y-value.

Front

Back

If a graph fails the vertical line test, it is not a function.

Front

What is an example of a function?

What is an example of a relation that is not a function?

Back

An example of a relation that is not a function is y^2 = x, where one x-value can correspond to two y-values.

Front

What does it mean for a graph to be increasing?

Back

A graph is increasing if as the x-values increase, the y-values also increase.
