A1 Vocab Exponential funct., Arithmetic and Geometric Sequences

Front

Asymptote

Back

a line that is approached but may not be crossed

Front

Continuous function

Back

function whose values are continuous or unbroken over the specified domain

Front

Discrete function

Back

function whose values are distinct and separate and not connected; values are not continuous. Discrete functions are defined by their domain.

Front

Domain

Back

set of input values for the independent variable over which the function is defined (x values)

Front

Exponential decay

Back

an exponential function where 0 < b < 1 and as x increases, y decreases exponentially

Front

Inequality notation

Back

notation in which the solution is represented by an inequality statement

Front

Range

Back

set of output values for the dependent variable over which the function is defined (y values)

Front

y-intercept(s)

Back

y coordinate of a point at which the relation crosses the y-axis, meaning the x coordinate equals zero, (0, y)

Front

Arithmetic sequence

Back

sequence formed by adding or subtracting the same value to calculate each subsequent term

Front

Geometric sequence

Back

sequence formed by multiplying or dividing by the same value to calculate each subsequent term
