AB
x-axisthe horizontal number line
y-axisthe vertical number line
originthe point at which the axes of the coordinate plane intersect
Quadrantthe four regions into which the two perpendicular lines separate the plane
relationa set of ordered pairs
domainthe set of all first coordinates from the ordered pairs in a relation
mappingshows how each member of the domain is paired with each member of the range
ordered pairthe coordinates of the point
coordinate systemcomposed of two perpendicular lines intersecting at their zero points creating a coordinate plane upon which ordered pairs may be graphed
vertical line testmethod to determine if the graph of a relation is a function
functiona special type of relation in which each element of the domain is paired with exactly one element of the range
rangethe set of all second coordinates from the ordered pairs in a relation
discrete functionthe domain of the function is a set of individual points
continuous functionthe domain of the function has an infinite number of elements and can be graphed with a line or smooth curve
