2. Relation--A set of ordered pairs
Domain--The set of the first numbers or abscissas of the ordered pairs in a relation.
Range--The set of second numbers in the ordered pairs of a relation.
independent variable--The variable in a function whose value is subject to choice.
dependent variable--The variable in a relation whose value depends on the value of the independent variable.

20. Independent and Dependent Variables
A. CLIMATE In warm climates, the average amount of electricity used rises as the daily average temperature increases, and falls as the daily average temperature decreases. Identify the independent and the dependent variables for this function.
Answer: Temperature is the independent variable as it is unaffected by the amount of electricity used. Electricity usage is the dependent variable as it is affected by the temperature.
Example 2

21. Independent and Dependent Variables
B. The number of calories you burn increases as the number of minutes that you walk increases. Identify the independent and the dependent variables for this function.
Answer: The time is the independent variable. The number of calories burned is the dependent variable as it is affected by the time.

A. The number of new members is the independent variable. The dues is the dependent variable.
B. Membership dues is the independent variable. Number of new members is the dependent variable.
C. x is the independent. y is the dependent.
D. Both are independent. A B C D

24. Analyze Graphs
The graph represents the temperature in Ms. Ling’s classroom on a winter school day. Describe what is happening in the graph.
Sample answer: The temperature increases after the heat is turned on. Then the temperature fluctuates up and down because of the thermostat. Finally the temperature drops when the heat is turned off.

The graph below represents Macy’s speed as she swims laps in a pool. Describe what is happening in the graph.
A. Macy is doing bobs.
B. Macy’s speed increases as she crosses the length of the pool, but then decreases to zero when she turns around at the end of each lap.
C. Macy is swimming at a constant speed.
D. Macy’s speed continues to decrease. A B C D
