MVP Math 1 Module 3 Key Features/Interval Notation

Front

What is a maximum point in a function?

Back

A maximum point is the highest point on the graph of a function within a given interval.

Front

What is a minimum point in a function?

Back

A minimum point is the lowest point on the graph of a function within a given interval.

Front

What does interval notation represent?

Back

Interval notation is a way of writing subsets of the real number line, using parentheses and brackets to indicate whether endpoints are included.

Front

What is the interval of increase of a function?

Back

The interval of increase is the range of x-values over which the function's output values are increasing.

Front

How do you determine the domain of a function?

Back

The domain of a function is the set of all possible input values (x-values) that will not cause any undefined behavior, such as division by zero.

Front

What is a y-intercept?

Back

A y-intercept is the point where a graph intersects the y-axis, represented as (0, y).

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 do you express the domain of a function in interval notation?

Back

The domain is expressed using brackets for inclusive endpoints and parentheses for exclusive endpoints.

Front

What does it mean if a function is increasing on an interval?

Back

A function is increasing on an interval if, as x increases, the function's output (y) also increases.

Front

What does it mean if a function is decreasing on an interval?

Back

A function is decreasing on an interval if, as x increases, the function's output (y) decreases.
