A function where no two different inputs produce the same output
Injective (one-to-one)
Function that ensures that every element in the range is mapped on at least one element from the domain
Surjective (onto)
Function that is both surjective and injective at the same time
Bijective (one-to-one correspondence)
Type of function ensures that every element in the range is mapped on at least one element from the domain
Surjective Function (onto)
Function where no different inputs produce the same output
Injective Function (one-to-one)
Function that are both surjective and injective at the same time
Bijective (one-to-one correspondence)
Discontinuity occurs when the limit exists but does not equal the function value
Removable/Point discontinuity
Discontinuity where a function has different left-hand and right-hand limits
Jump discontinuity
Discontinuity occurs when the function grows without bound as x approaches a point
Infinite discontinuity
critical point where a function doesnt have a local maximum or minimum, but instead curves upward in one direction and downward in another
Saddle point
A relation that expresses both x and t in terms of a third variable
Parametric Equations
How do you find the slope (dy/dx) of a parametric curve?
Divide dy/dt by dx/dt
The rate of change of a function with respect to one variable while holding others constant
Partial Derivative
