    Study Notes

    Understanding Relations

    • A relation is defined as a collection of ordered pairs, capturing the relationship between two sets of data.
    • Each ordered pair includes an x-coordinate and a y-coordinate, providing a unique mapping from the domain to the range.

    Components of Ordered Pairs

    • The x-coordinate represents the input value, typically referred to as the independent variable.
    • The independent variable is part of the domain, which includes all possible inputs for the relation.

    Output and Dependent Variables

    • The y-coordinate serves as the output value, known as the dependent variable.
    • The dependent variable corresponds to the range, which encompasses all possible outputs derived from the given inputs.
