Answer:

D. An input is the value that determines another based on the relation or function rule, usually the x-values in a set of ordered pairs on a tale or graph.

Explanation:

For any relation (given ordered pairs), there are x - values and y-values, also called inputs and outputs. For every input, there is an output. For example, given the function rule:

y = 2x + 1

If x = 1, y = 3

If x = 2, y = 5

and, so on..

So, the output (y) is determined by the input (x) and is usually the x-values.
