Front

What is the domain of a function?

Back

The domain of a function is the set of all possible input values (x-values) for which the function is defined.

Front

What does it mean for a line to have an undefined slope?

Back

A line has an undefined slope when it is vertical, meaning it goes straight up and down, and does not have a defined rate of change.

Front

What is the range of a function?

Back

The range of a function is the set of all possible output values (y-values) that the function can produce.

Front

How do you calculate the slope of a line given two points?

Back

The slope (m) is calculated using the formula m = (y2 - y1) / (x2 - x1), where (x1, y1) and (x2, y2) are the coordinates of the two points.

Front

What is the vertical line test?

Back

The vertical line test is a method used to determine if a graph represents a function. If any vertical line intersects the graph at more than one point, the graph does not represent a function.

Front

What is a linear function?

Back

A linear function is a function that can be graphically represented as a straight line, characterized by a constant rate of change (slope).

Front

What is the significance of the y-intercept in a linear equation?

Back

The y-intercept is the point where the line crosses the y-axis, representing the value of the function when x = 0.

Front

What does it mean for a function to be increasing?

Back

A function is increasing if, as the input values (x) increase, the output values (y) also increase.

Front

What does it mean for a function to be decreasing?

Back

A function is decreasing if, as the input values (x) increase, the output values (y) decrease.

Front

What is a horizontal line and what is its slope?

Back

A horizontal line is a line that runs left to right and has a slope of 0, indicating no change in y as x changes.
