What is the domain of a function?

• All possible output values

• The relationship between x and y

• All possible input values

• The graph of the function

The vertical line test determines if:

• A relation is linear

• The graph has a y-intercept

• The relation is a function

• The function is decreasing

In the function f(x)=2x+1, what is f(3)?

• 5

• 7

• 4

• 6

Which relation is NOT a function?

• y=x^2

• A circle with radius 5

• y=|x|

• y=3x−2

The range of a function is:

• All x-values that make the function true

• The set of all possible output values
