Math unit 4 post Flashcards
relation
something that shows how the input is related to the output
function
a relationship between variables where each input is paired with exactly one output
input
the numbers that go into a function
output
the numbers that come out of a function
domain
the set of possible values of x/input
range
the set of all possible values for y/output
parent function
the simplest form of a family function
discrete
when the domain of a function consists of just whole numbers or integers. the graph of the function is a series of data points
continuous
when the domain of a function includes all real numbers. the graph of the function is a line or curve
transformation
4 specific ways to manipulate the shape and/or position of a point, line; or geometric figure
translation
a type of transformation that takes each point in a figure and slides it the same distance in the same direction.
rotation
type of transformation that takes each point in a figure and rotates it a certain number of degrees around a given point.
reflection
a type of transformation that takes each point in a figure and reflects it over a line.
enlargement
a type of transformation where we change the size of the original shape to make it bigger or smaller by multiplying it by a scale factor
mapping diagram
a diagram that shows the input and output of a function
