2.2 Flashcards
a relation in which each element of the domain is paired with exactly one element in the range.
function
a set of pairs of input and output values
relation
a relation is the set of all inputs or x coordinates of the ordered pairs.
domain
a relation is the set of all outputs or y coordinates of the ordered pairs
range
links elements of the domain with corresponding elements of the range
mapping diagram
the graph of a relation to tell whether the relation is a function
vertical line test
f(x) as F of X or a function f of x . note that f(x) does not mean f times x.
function notation
a line is the point a which the line crosses the y axis
y intercept
a line is the point at which the line crosses x axis
x intercept
Ax + By = C, where A, B, and C are real numbers and A and B are not zero
standard form of a linear equation
a function whos graph line is
linear function
y=3x + 2
linear equation
because the value of Y depends on the value of X, Y is called the
dependent variable
Y = 3x + 2 x is called the
independent variable
a non vertical line is the ratio of the vertical change to a corresponding horizontal change
slope
