Algebra II - Relations and Functions - Page 1 preview imageStudy GuideAlgebra II–RelaƟons and FuncƟons1. Basic DefiniƟonsIn algebra, a concept can sometimes have more than one way to describe it. This is true fororderedpairsandrelations.Anordered pairis written as ((x, y)).•Thefirst number (x)represents thehorizontal coordinate.•Thesecond number (y)represents thevertical coordinate.When several ordered pairs are grouped together, they form arelation.•The set of allx-valuesin a relation is called thedomain.•The set of ally-valuesin a relation is called therange.A special type of relation is called afunction. In a function,each x-value is paired with only one y-value.Relation

Thedomainis the set of all x-values, and therangeis the set of all y-values. Relations can be shown using ordered pairs, mapping diagrams,graphs, or equations.Afunctionis a special relation in which each x-value corresponds to exactly one y-value. One way tocheck if a graph represents a function is by using thevertical line test. If any vertical line intersectsthe graph more than once, the graph does not represent a function.2.
