What is the vertical line test?

Back

The vertical line test is a method used to determine if a curve is a function. If a vertical line intersects the curve at more than one point, then the curve is not a function.

What is an example of a function?

Back

An example of a function is f(x) = 2x + 3, where for every value of x, there is a unique value of f(x).

What is an example of a relation that is not a function?

Back

An example of a relation that is not a function is y^2 = x, because for some values of x, there are two corresponding values of y.

What does it mean for a function to be one-to-one?

Back

A function is one-to-one if it assigns a unique output for every unique input, meaning no two different inputs produce the same output.

What is a linear function?

Back

A linear function is a function that graphs to a straight line and can be expressed in the form f(x) = mx + b, where m is the slope and b is the y-intercept.
