2.1-2.4 Flashcards
set of pairs of input and output values
Relation
set of all inputs(x-coordinates)
Domain
set of all outputs(y-coordinates)
Range
map linking elements of the domain to corresponding elements of the range
Mapping Diagram
relation in which each element of the domain is paired with exactly one element in the range
Function
if a graph is a function or not
Vertical Line Test (VLT)
f(x) is read as ‘f’ of ‘x’ or ‘a function f of x’ not ‘f times x’
Function Notation
function whose graph is a line
Linear Function
linear functions can be represented as
Linear Equation
when the value of y depends on the value of x
dependent variable
the x is called
independent variable
the line crosses the y-axis(0,b)
Y-Intercept
the line crosses the x-axis (A,0)
X-Intercept
Ax+By=C where A,B,C are real numbers and A and B dont equal C
Standard Form of a Linear Equation
non-vertical line is the ratio of the vertical change to a corresponding horizontal change (m)
Slope
