What is a function?

Back

A function is a relation between a set of inputs and a set of possible outputs where each input is related to exactly one output.

Front

What is the vertical line test?

Back

The vertical line test is a method used to determine if a curve is a graph of a function. If any vertical line intersects the graph at more than one point, then the graph is not a function.

Front

What is the domain of a function?

Back

The domain of a function is the complete set of possible values of the independent variable (input) for which the function is defined.

Front

What is the range of a function?

Back

The range of a function is the complete set of possible values of the dependent variable (output) that results from using the function.

Front

What is a linear function?

Back

A linear function is a function that can be graphically represented in the Cartesian plane as a straight line, defined by the equation y = mx + b.

Front

What is a quadratic function?

Back

A quadratic function is a function that can be expressed in the form f(x) = ax² + bx + c, where a, b, and c are constants and a ≠ 0.

Front

What is a relation?

Back

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

Front

What is an independent variable?

Back

An independent variable is a variable that represents the input or cause in a function, which can be manipulated to observe its effect on the dependent variable.

Front

What is a dependent variable?

Back

A dependent variable is a variable that represents the output or effect in a function, which depends on the value of the independent variable.

Front

What is a one-to-one function?

Back

A one-to-one function is a function in which each output is associated with exactly one input, meaning no two different inputs produce the same output.
