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 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 the function can produce.

What is the vertical line test?

Back

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

Front

What is the horizontal line test?

Back

The horizontal line test is used to determine if a function is one-to-one. If any horizontal line intersects the graph more than once, the function is not one-to-one.

Front

How do you find the domain of a function given a graph?

Back

To find the domain from a graph, identify all the x-values for which the graph has points. The domain is the set of these x-values.

Front

How do you find the range of a function given a graph?

Back

To find the range from a graph, identify all the y-values that the graph reaches. The range is the set of these y-values.

Front

What is an ordered pair?

Back

An ordered pair is a pair of numbers used to represent a point in a coordinate system, typically written as (x, y).

Front

What does it mean for a set of ordered pairs to represent a function?

Back

A set of ordered pairs represents a function if no two different ordered pairs have the same first element (x-value).

Front

What is a one-to-one function?

Back

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