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

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

Front

What does it mean for a function to have a minimum point?

Back

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