Front

What is a function?

Back

A function is a relation between a set of inputs and a set of possible outputs where each input is related to exactly one output.

Front

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

How can you determine if a relation is a function?

Back

A relation is a function if each input value corresponds to exactly one output value. This can be checked using the vertical line test on a graph.

Front

What is the vertical line test?

Back

The vertical line test is a method to determine if a curve is a function. If a vertical line intersects the curve at more than one point, it is not a function.

Front

What does it mean for a mapping to be a function?

Back

A mapping is a function if every element in the domain is paired with exactly one element in the range.

Front

Given the function {(0,1), (1,-3), (2,-4), (-4,1)}, what is the domain?

Back

The domain is {0, 1, 2, -4}.

Front

Given the function {(0,1), (1,-3), (2,-4), (-4,1)}, what is the range?

Back

The range is {1, -3, -4}.

Front

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

Back

The relation {(1,2), (1,3)} is not a function because the input '1' is associated with two different outputs.

What is a one-to-one function?

Back

A one-to-one function is a function where each output value is associated with exactly one input value.
