A function is a relation that has exactly one output for each input

Functions

A function is a relation that has exactly one output for each input

• Input - x variable, independent variable, the domain

Functions

A function is a relation that has exactly one output for each input

• Input - x variable, independent variable, the domain

• output – y variable, dependent variable, the range

Functions

• Make an input-output table (t-chart) for a function rule (equation in two variables) by plugging in an input and finding the output

Functions

• Make an input-output table (t-chart) for a function rule (equation in two variables) by plugging in an input and finding the output

• You can also use the input-output table to find the function rule (equation)
