Domain:

The domain of a function is the set of all possible input values (x-values) for which the function is defined.

Intercepts: Intercepts are points where a graph intersects either the x-axis (x-intercept) or y-axis (y-intercept).

Factors: Factors are expressions that divide evenly into another expression without leaving any remainder. In terms of functions, factors correspond to linear expressions that can be multiplied together to obtain the original polynomial expression.
