100

What is a relation?

A set of input and output values.

100
Evaluate f(2) if f(x)=-3x
f(2) = -6

State the domain and range:

xy
37
59
38

D: {3, 5}

R: {7, 8, 9}

100

Is it a function? Justify your answer. {(2, 3), (4, 5), ( -2, 6)}

If the relation is a function. Determine if it's linear or nonlinear. Justify your answer.

Yes, it's a function because each input has exactly one output (all x-values are different). 

It's a nonlinear function because it does not have a constant rate of change.

200

What is the y-intercept?

The y-coordinate of the point where a graph crosses the y-axis.

200
Evaluate f(7) if f(x)= -(4x+2)
f(7) = -30
200

State the domain and range:

D: {1, 2, 3, 4, 5, 6}

R: {-1, 0, 1, 2, 3, 6}

200

Using the vertical line test, does the graph of the points (1,3) and (1,5) represent a function?

No, the points fail the Vertical Line Test.

300

What test determines if a graph is a function?

Vertical Line Test

300
Evaluate f(-6) if f(x)=x^2 - 9
f(-6) = 27
300

State the domain and range:

D: [-4, infinity) 

R: (- infinity, + infinity) 

300

Is it a function? Justify your answer. If it's a function, determine if it's linear or nonlinear; justify your answer. 

xy

15
26

No, the relation is not a function because the input of 2 has two different outputs (not all x-values are different).


400

When is a function positive?

When the graph lies above the x-axis.

400

For f(x)=-2x+9, find the value of f(4)+3.

4

400

State the domain and range: y=3x + 9

D: (- infinity, + infinity) 

R: (- infinity, + infinity)

400

Is it a function? Justify your answer. If it's a function, determine if it's linear or nonlinear; justify your answer. 

7x+2y=14

It's a linear function because it is written in standard form and makes a non-vertical line when graphed. 

500

What is a function?

A relation in which each input has exactly one output. 

500

For f(x)=-3x+2, find the value of f(3) - f(6).

9

500

State the domain and range:

{(-11, 2), (-9, 2), (-7, 3), (-5, 3), (-3, 3)}

D: {-11, -9, -7, -5, -3}

R: {2, 3}

500

Is it a function? Justify your answer. If it's a function, determine if it's linear or nonlinear; justify your answer.  

Yes, it's a function because each input has exactly one output; passes the VLT.

It's a nonlinear function because it's not a line.
