How can you determine if a graph represents a function?

Back

Use the vertical line test: if a vertical line intersects the graph at more than one point, it is not a function.

What is the rate of change in a function?

Back

The rate of change is the ratio of the change in the y-values to the change in the x-values, often represented as slope.

What is the domain of a function?

Back

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