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 definition of an increasing function?

Back

An increasing function is a function where, as the input values increase, the output values also increase.

Front

What is the definition of a decreasing function?

Back

A decreasing function is a function where, as the input values increase, the output values decrease.

Front

What is an x-intercept?

Back

The x-intercept is the point where a graph crosses the x-axis, meaning the output (y-value) is zero.

Front

How do you find the x-intercept of a function?

Back

To find the x-intercept, set the output (y) to zero and solve for the input (x).

Front

What is a maximum in a graph?

Back

A maximum is the highest point on a graph, where the function changes from increasing to decreasing.

Front

What is a minimum in a graph?

Back

A minimum is the lowest point on a graph, where the function changes from decreasing to increasing.
