How can you determine if a graph represents a function?

Back

Use the vertical line test: if a vertical line intersects the graph at more than one point, it is not a function.

Front

What is an example of a function?

Back

The relation {(1,2), (2,3), (3,4)} is a function because each x-value has one unique y-value.

What is the vertical line test?

Back

A method to determine if a graph is a function by checking if a vertical line crosses the graph more than once.

Front

What does a mapping diagram show?

Back

A visual representation of how each input is paired with an output, helping to determine if a relation is a function.

What is the definition of a one-to-one function?
