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.

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.

What does the vertical line test determine?

Back

The vertical line test determines if a graph represents a function. If a vertical line intersects the graph at more than one point, it is not a function.

How do you find the output of a function for a given input?

Back

To find the output, substitute the input value into the function's equation and simplify.

If f(x) = 3x - 5, what is f(2)?

Back

f(2) = 3(2) - 5 = 6 - 5 = 1.

If the function is defined as f(x) = x^2, what is the range of f?

Back

The range of f(x) = x^2 is [0, ∞) since the output is always non-negative.
