Can a function have the same output for different inputs?

Back

Yes, a function can have the same output for different inputs, as long as each input has only one output.

What is the vertical line test?

Back

The vertical line test is a method used 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

What is the domain of a function?

Back

The domain of a function is the set of all possible input values (x-values) that the function can accept.

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.
