Front

What is the DEPENDENT variable?

Back

The dependent variable is the variable that depends on the value of another variable. In an experiment, it is what you measure or observe.

Front

Which equation matches the table?

Back

The equation that matches the table is the one that correctly represents the relationship between the input and output values.

Front

Name the DEPENDENT variable from the table below.

Back

The dependent variable is the one that changes in response to the independent variable. For example, in a table showing minutes and bubbles, 'bubbles' is the dependent variable.

Front

If my function rule is 4x, what is the OUTPUT if the input is 5?

Back

The output is 20, calculated as 4 times 5.

Front

What is the rule?

Back

The rule is the operation that relates the input to the output, such as 'Multiply by 3'.

Front

What is an INPUT/OUTPUT table?

Back

An input/output table is a table that shows how each input value relates to an output value based on a specific rule or function.

Front

What does the term 'function' mean in mathematics?

Back

A function is a relationship or rule that assigns exactly one output for each input.

Front

How do you identify the INDEPENDENT variable?

Back

The independent variable is the one that you change or control in an experiment. It is often plotted on the x-axis of a graph.

Front

What is a graph?

Back

A graph is a visual representation of data that shows the relationship between two or more variables.

Front

What does it mean to evaluate a function?

Back

To evaluate a function means to calculate the output value for a given input using the function's rule.
