Here are the vocabulary words matched with their correct definitions:

  1. the variable representing the second elements of the ordered pairs in a function; the outputs - dependent variable

  2. the independent value, or x value - independent variable

  3. a relation where for any given input value there is only one output value - function

  4. the variable representing the first elements of the ordered pairs in a function; the inputs - independent variable (Note: this can be confusing; it specifically refers to "inputs" but here it's noted as "independent". However, the first elements of the ordered pairs are indeed the independent variables in context.)

  5. a mathematical statement that shows two expressions are equal; has an equal sign - equation

  6. the set of all possible inputs - domain

So the full matches would look like this:

  1. dependent variable
  2. independent variable
  3. function
  4. independent variable (or could list: the variable representing the first elements as independent variable)
  5. equation
  6. domain (if you added a domain definition).

If you need any adjustments or clarifications, feel free to ask!

there cant be 2 answers that are the same

Apologies for the confusion in the previous response. Let's clarify and match each term with its unique definition. Here’s the correct pairing:

  1. dependent variable - the variable representing the second elements of the ordered pairs in a function; the outputs

  2. independent variable - the independent value, or x value

  3. function - a relation where for any given input value there is only one output value

  4. domain - the variable representing the first elements of the ordered pairs in a function; the inputs

  5. equation - a mathematical statement that shows two expressions are equal; has an equal sign

Each term now has a unique definition. Thank you for your patience!
