| Domain | All the x-coordinates in the functions ordered pairs make up the ____ of the function. |
| Range | All the y-coordinates in the functions ordered pairs make up the ____ of the function. |
| Independent | Another word describing the domain of a function. |
| Dependent | Another word describing the range of a function. |
| Increases | Gets larger. |
| Decreases | Gets smaller. |
| Constant | Stays the same. |
| Positive Correlation | The dependent variable increases as the independent variable increases. |
