What is an Input/Output Table?

Back

An Input/Output Table is a way to organize information that shows how one number (input) is transformed into another number (output) using a specific rule.

Front

What does it mean when the output is 3 times the input?

Back

It means that for every number you put in (input), you multiply it by 3 to get the number that comes out (output). For example, if the input is 2, the output would be 6.

Front

If the input is 4 and the output is 20, what is the rule?

Back

The rule is to multiply the input by 5 (4 x 5 = 20).

Front

What is a function in mathematics?

Back

A function is a special relationship where each input has exactly one output.

Front

What does it mean to 'add 2' in a function?

Back

It means that you take the input number and add 2 to it to get the output. For example, if the input is 3, the output would be 5.

Front

If the rule is 'multiply by 4', what is the output when the input is 3?

Back

The output would be 12 (3 x 4 = 12).

Front

What is the purpose of an Input/Output Table?

Back

The purpose is to help visualize how inputs are transformed into outputs using a specific rule.

Front

If Sam earns 9 points and the rule is 'multiply by 2', how many laps did he make?

Back

He made 18 laps (9 x 2 = 18).

Front

What does it mean when the output is '8 times as much as the input'?

Back

It means you multiply the input by 8 to find the output. For example, if the input is 1, the output would be 8.

Front

What is the output if the input is 5 and the rule is 'add 3'?

Back

The output would be 8 (5 + 3 = 8).
