RELATIONS

Front

What is a relation in mathematics?

Back

A relation is a set of ordered pairs, typically representing a relationship between two sets of values.

Front

What is the domain of a function?

Back

The domain 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

The range is the set of all possible output values (y-values) that a function can produce.

Front

How do you determine the dependent variable in a relationship?

Back

The dependent variable is the one that depends on the value of another variable, often represented as the output in a function.

Front

What is an example of a dependent variable?

Back

In the statement 'The faster you drive your car, the longer it will take to stop,' the stopping distance is the dependent variable.

Front

What is an example of an independent variable?

Back

In the same statement, the speed of the car is the independent variable.

Front

What does it mean for a relation to be a function?

Back

A relation is a function if each input (x-value) is associated with exactly one output (y-value).

Front

What is a mapping in mathematics?

Back

A mapping is a way to represent a relation between two sets, showing how each element from the first set corresponds to an element in the second set.

Front

What is the difference between domain and range?

Back

The domain refers to the input values of a function, while the range refers to the output values.

Front

How can you find the domain of a function from a graph?

Back

The domain can be found by identifying all the x-values that the graph covers.
