How can you determine if a graph represents a function?

Back

A graph represents a function if any vertical line drawn through the graph intersects it at most once.

What is the domain of a function?

Back

The domain is the set of all possible input values (x-values) for the function.

Front

What is the range of a function?

Back

The range is the set of all possible output values (y-values) for the function.
