Functions

Introduction to functions terms (Algebra I)

TermDefinition
Dependent Variable (quantity) a variable whose value depends upon input; what is being evaluated in a mathematical equation
Independent Variable (quantity) a variable that is manipulated to determine the value of a output; the value or quantity being inputted into an equation
Input the value or quantity being used to calculate/evaluate an equation
Output the value given from an equation after a calculation has been performed/executed
Function a special type of relation that pairs each domain value with exactly one range value (the x-values cannot repeat)
Nonlinear data that does not have a linear patern
Representation a table, graph, equation, verbal are the different representations possible for any given relation or function
Continuous graph graphs made with a connected line or curve
Discrete graph a graph where data is only represented by coordinate points (dots)
Linear Function a function whose graph is a line with a constant rate of change and the direction of line does not change
Domain in a relation, the set of first coordinates (or x-values) of the ordered pairs; all the x-values for a given relation or function; the input
Range in a relation, the set of second coordinates (or y-values) of the ordered pairs; all the y-values for a given relation or function; the output
Relation a set of ordered pairs
Vertical Line Test draw vertical lines over a graph and if the lines only intersect the graph once, it is a function. If any lines intersect the graph more than once, it is not a function
Function Notation In a function, if "x" is independent and "y" is dependent, the function notation for "y" is "f(x)" - read "f of x". When you see function notation, it signals that the equation and resulting relation is a function.

Use these flashcards to help memorize information. Look at the large card and try to recall what is on the other side. Then click the card to flip it. If you knew the answer, click the green Know box. Otherwise, click the red Don't know box.

When you've placed seven or more cards in the Don't know box, click "retry" to try those cards again.

If you've accidentally put the card in the wrong box, just click on the card to take it out of the box.

You can also use your keyboard to move the cards as follows:

If you are logged in to your account, this website will remember which cards you know and don't know so that they are in the same box the next time you log in.

When you need a break, try one of the other activities listed below the flashcards like Matching, Snowman, or Hungry Bug. Although it may feel like you're playing a game, your brain is still making more connections with the information to help you out.

To see how well you know the information, try the Quiz or Test activity.
