Front

What is depreciation in financial terms?

Back

Depreciation is the reduction in the value of an asset over time, often due to wear and tear or obsolescence.

Front

What is the initial value of an asset?

Back

The initial value of an asset is the purchase price or cost of the asset before any depreciation.

Front

Define a continuous function.

Back

A continuous function is a function where small changes in the input result in small changes in the output, and it can take any value within a given range.

Front

What is a discrete function?

Back

A discrete function is a function that only takes specific, separate values, often represented by whole numbers.

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 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 determine the range from a graph?

Back

To determine the range from a graph, identify the lowest and highest y-values that the graph reaches.

Front

What does the equation y=2^x represent?

Back

The equation y=2^x represents an exponential function where the base is 2, indicating that y increases rapidly as x increases.

Front

What is a linear equation?

Back

A linear equation is an equation that graphs as a straight line and can be expressed in the form y = mx + b, where m is the slope and b is the y-intercept.

Front

How do you solve for the cost of an item using a system of equations?

Back

To solve for the cost of an item using a system of equations, set up equations based on the information given, then use substitution or elimination to find the values.
