Study Notes
Functions and Relations
- A Function assigns exactly one output for each input, ensuring consistency in the relationship.
- An Input is the numerical value or quantity you provide to obtain a specific output in a function.
- An Output is the resulting numerical value or quantity derived from the provided input.
Ordered Pairs
- An Ordered Pair consists of two numbers that represent a relationship between two elements and is formatted as (x, y), where order matters.
Relations
- A Relation encompasses all possible ordered pairs that represent the association between inputs and outputs, forming a set of pairs.
Visual Representation
- Mapping serves as a visual tool for illustrating a relation, using arrows to connect inputs to their corresponding outputs, highlighting the function's nature.
Analyzing Graphs
- The Vertical Line Test is a method used to determine if a graph represents a function by observing if any vertical line intersects the graph at more than one point.
