Unit 3 Relations and Functions Flashcards
What is a Coordinate Plane?
Formed by the intersection of two number lines, the horizontal axis and the vertical axis
What is the x-axis?
The horizontal (left to right) axis on a coordinate plane
What is the y-axis?
The vertical (up and down) axis on a coordiante plane
What are quadrants?
The four regions into which the x and y axis separate the coordinate plane
What is the origin?
It is the point at which the x and y axis intersect on the corrdinate plane at (0,0)
What is an ordered pair?
A set of number or coordinate, written in the form (x,y)
What is the x-coordinate?
The horizontal placement of an ordered pair
What is the y-coordinate?
The vertical placement of an ordered pair
What is a discrete graph?
A graph that consists of points that are not connected
What is a continuous graph?
A function graphed with a line or smooth curve
What is a relation?
A set of ordered pairs
What is a domain?
The set of x values in a relation
What is a range?
The set of y values in a relation
What does a mapping diagram do?
It illistrates how each element of the domain is paired with an element of the range
What is a function?
A relation in which each element of the domain is paired with exactly ONE element of the range
