| Question | Answer |
|---|---|
| Independent variable | Abscissa of the point x |
| dependent variable | ordinate of the point y |
| domain | the set of input values of x of the function |
| range | the set of output values of y that correspond to the x values |
| table of values | a table where the values of a function often appear, it shows the data needed |
| continuous function | a function that has no discontinuities of any kind |
| discontinuous function | a function where there's a point missing, there's a "jump" or when it tends to infinity |
| increasing function/interval | if x2 > x1 then f(x2) > f(x1) |
| decreasing function/interval | if x2 > x1 the f(x2) < f(x1) |
| relative maximum | when a value is greater at a point than the rest near it |
| relative minimum | when a value is smaller at a point than the rest near it |
| absolute maximum | the greatest value of a function in an interval |
| absolute minimum | the smallest value of a function in an interval |
| tendency | the behavior far outside the interval we are studying |
| periodicity | repeated behavior in function |
