GEN MATH Flashcards
It is a special kind of relation in which no two distinct ordered pairs have the same first element.
function
The value that a function takes in.
The input.
Independent variable
the corresponding value that the function produces.
the output.
outputs are also known as values of f(x).
Dependent variable
The arrow is read as
is mapped to
colon symbol is read as
such that
may also be used to represent functions.
we can substitute a value of y to obtain a
corresponding value of x.
candidate functions
denote equality between two expressions
equations
denote relationships between two variables
functions
can be represented by writing the appropriate
functions for each interval
piecewise function
is a set of objects, such as numbers,
grouped with each other that may or may not
represent a pattern.
relation
It is simply a set of ordered pairs
that are arranged in an orderly manner.
relation
Each value of x is unique and is associated with a unique value of y .
one to one relation
Two or more values of x are associated with the same value of y.
many to one relation
Some values of x are associated with more than one value of y.
one to many relation
Some values of both x and y are associated with more than one value of their
counterpart.
