The set of all x-components of the ordered pairs is called the domain of the relation and the set of all y-components is called the range of the relation. Practice: Find the domain and the range of the relation: 5,1.8, 10,16., 15,18.9, 0,0.7 5,1.8 Domain: Range: Definition of a Function A function is a correspondence from a first set, called domain, to a second set, called the range, such that each element in the domain corresponds to exactly one element in the range. A relation of order pairs is a function if all of the domain (x) values are different. A function can have two different domain values with the same range value. Practice: In 1- Determine whether each relation is a function: 1. 1,, 3,4, 5,6, 5,8. 1,, 3,4, 6,5, 8,5 Math Analysis Notes Mr. Hayden 3

Determining Whether an Equation Represents a Function. o To determine whether an equation defines y as a function of x: 1. Solve the equation in terms of y. If only one value of y can be obtained for a given x, the equation is a function. Example: x + y = 4 x x y = 4 x From this last equation we can see that for each value of x, there is one and only one value of y. For example, if x = 3, then y = 4 3 = 5. This equation defines y as a function of x. If two or more values of y can be obtained for a given x, the equation is not a function. Example: x + y = 5 x x y = 5 x y 5 x y 5 x The ± in the last equation shows that for certain values of x, there are two values of y. For example x =, then y 5 () 5 4 1 1. For this reason, the equation does not define y as a function of x. Practice: In 1-, determine whether each equation defines y as a function of x. 1. y x 4. x y 4 Function Notation If an equation in x and y gives only one value of y for each value of x, then the variable y is a function of the variable x. We use function notation by replacing y with f x. We think of a functions domain (xcomponents) as the set of the function s input values and the range (y-components) as the set of the function s f x, read f of x represents the value of the function at the number output values. The special notation x. Input Output We read this equation as f of x equal x +3 x f(x) f x x 3 Evaluating a Function To evaluate a function substitute the input value in for x and evaluate the expression. Practice: If f ( x) x x 7, evaluate each of the following: (a) f ( 5) (b) f( x 4) (c) f( x) Math Analysis Notes Mr. Hayden 4

Graphs of Functions Practice: Graph the functions f ( x) x and g( x) x 3 in the same rectangular coordinate system. Select integers for x, starting with and ending with. How is the graph of g related to the graph of f? The Vertical Line Test If any vertical line intersects a graph in more than one point, the graph does not define y as a function of x. If any vertical line intersects a graph in none or only at one point,, the graph does define y as a function of x. Practice: In 1-4, Use the vertical line test to identify graphs in which y is a function of x. 1.. Math Analysis Notes Mr. Hayden 5

3. 4. Section 1-3 More on Functions and Their Graphs The Difference Quotient The expression: f ( x h) f ( x) h for h 0 is called the difference quotient. To evaluate the difference quotient: 1. Find the value of f ( x h) by using substitution, replacing x with (x + h) and simplify the expression.. Use the expression found in step one and subtract f( x) from it. 3. Use the expression found in step two and divide by h. This new expression is the called the difference quotient. Example: If f ( x) 3x x 4, find and simplify each expression. This is f(x+h) form part (a) (a) f ( x h) (b) f ( x h) f ( x), h 0 h (a) We find f ( x h) by replacing x with x + h each time that x appears in the equation. (b) Using our result from part (a), we obtain the following: This is f(x) from the given equation. f(x) = 3x x + 4 Replace x with x + h f(x + h) = 3(x + h) (x + h) + 4 = 3(x + xh + h ) x h + 4 = 3x + 6xh +3 h x h + 4 f x h f x x xh h x h x x h h 3x 6xh 3h x h 4 3x x 4 = h ( 3x 3x ) ( x x) ( 4 4) 6xh 3h h = h 6xh 3h h = h = h ( 6x 3h ) = 6x + 3h h ( ) ( ) 3 6 3 4 ( 3 4) Math Analysis Notes Mr. Hayden 6

To evaluate a Piecewise Function Only substitute the x-value into the expression where the inequality of x is true. When you evaluate this expression the result is the value of the function with that given x. Practice: In 1-, Evaluate each piecewise function at the given values of the independent variable. 3x5 if x0 1. f( x) x 9 4x7 if x0 if x 3. hx ( ) x 3 6 if x 3 (a) f ( ) (b) f ( 0) (c) f () 3 (a) h () 5 (b) h ( 0) (c) h () 3 Math Analysis Notes Mr. Hayden 7

Even and Odd Functions and Symmetry The function f is an even function if: f ( x) f ( x) for all x in the domain of f. The right side of the equation of an even function does not change if x is replaced with x. The function f is an odd function if: f ( x) f ( x) for all x in the domain of f. The right side of the equation of an odd function changes its sign if x is replaced with x. If you replace x with x and you get something else that happens then we say the function is neither odd or even.

Inverse Functions Definition of the Inverse of a Function Let f and g be two functions such that f g x x for every x in the domain of g and g f x x for every x in the domain of f. The function g is the inverse of the function f and is denoted by 1 f f x x. The domain of f is equal to the range of 1 f 1 (read f inverse ). Thus, 1 f, and vice versa. f f x x and Finding the Inverse of a Function The equation for the inverse of a function f can be found as follows: 1. Replace f(x) with y in the equation for f(x).. Interchange x and y. 3. Solve for y. If this equation does not define y as a function of x, the function f does not have an inverse function and his procedure ends. If this equation does define y as a function of x, the function f has an inverse function. 4. If f has an inverse function, replace y in step 3 with f 1 ( x) f 1 f x x and 1 f f x x.
