FAQ

How do I use this what is a function worksheet?

⌄

Start with What Makes a Relation a Function, then work through pairs, tables, mapping diagrams and graphs. Use the card sort as a review.

What does this worksheet teach?

⌄

Test sets of ordered pairs as functions and write the domain and range of each one that is. The directions on the page read: Is each set of ordered pairs a function? Circle Yes or No. If it is a function, write its domain (the inputs) and its range (the outputs) in braces, each value once. An answer key is included.

Can I use this what is a function worksheet for homeschool or classroom?

⌄

Yes, both. We made it for 8th grade functions, and it works the same at home or at school. At home, a student can work through it alone and then go over it with you, which shows quickly what is solid and what needs another look. In class it works as independent practice, homework or a warm-up, and you can print one copy or a full set.

What is the difference between a relation and a function?

⌄

A relation is any set of input and output pairs. A function is a relation where no input has two different outputs. What Makes a Relation a Function asks students to name the input that breaks the rule.

Can two inputs have the same output in a function?

⌄

Yes. A set like (2, 8), (4, 8), (6, 8) is still a function, because each input has only one output. Only one input with two outputs breaks the rule.

What are domain and range?

⌄

The domain is the set of inputs and the range is the set of outputs. Functions From Sets of Ordered Pairs has students write both in braces, each value once.
