HW#8: Functions (page 2 – 4)
Thurs, 10/20
ObjectivesWednesday
1. To define a function
2. To learn function notation
3. To evaluate functions
Today
1. To learn function mapping
2. To conduct the vertical line test
3. To find the domain and range of a function
4. To write a function as an ordered pair
Function Mapping
A set of points or equation where every input has exactly one output.
For each x-value there is only one y-value In other words, x can not be repeated
This is a function! There is only one arrow coming from each x.There is only one y for each x. In other words, x can not be repeated
This is a function! There is only one arrow coming from each xThere is only one y for each x. It just so happens that it's always the same y for each x.
Function Mapping (cont’d)
This one is not a function.There are two arrows coming from the number 1.The number 1 is associated with two different range elements. In order words, x is repeated.
Function Mapping (cont’d)
Vertical Line Test
No mater where we drop a vertical line, if the vertical line only hits the graph once, it is a function.
So, this graph is a function!
Draw a graph, that would NOT pass the vertical line test.
Vertical Line Test (cont’d)
Intersect at two points These graphs are not functions
SWBAT… find the domain and range of functions
Agenda 1. WU (10 min)2. Domain and range (10 min)3. 10 practice problems (20 min)
Warm-Up: For problems 1 - 2:a. State the domain.b. State the range.c. Is this a function? Explain. 1. {(3,3), (4,3), (2,1), (6,5)}2. {(2,1), (5,6), (2,3), (6,7) }
HW#1: Functions – Page 3 & 4
Mon, 10/24
Domain and Range
• Domain: What can go into a function. The set of all x values in a function.
• Range: What comes out of a function. The set of all y values in a function.
Domain and Range (cont’d)
f(x) = x2 – 2 The domain is the set of all real numbers.The range is y ≥ -2.
Question 1/10
Question: For the function f(x) = x2, if the domain is {1, 2, 3}, what is the range?
Question 2/10
Given f(x) = 3x – 5 and the domain is {0, 2, -1}
find the range
Question 3/10
If f(x) = -x2 find a. f(3) b. f(-3)
Question 4/10
Function f is defined by f(x) = -2x2 + 6x – 3
1. Find f(-2)
2. Write as an ordered pair
Question 5/10

Question 6/10
Is the graph shown below that of a function? Why?
Question 7/10
Suppose h(w) = 2w. What is h(v)?
Answer: h(v) = 2(v)
h(v) = 2v
Question 8/10
What does the function notation g(7) represent? (what is the input and output)
Answer: g(7) is the output, the input is 7
Question 9/10
Suppose g(x) = 3x + 2. Describe, in words, what the function g does.
Answer: The function g takes an input, multiplies by 3, and then adds 2.
Question 10/10
Write in function notation “the function g takes an input y adds 3, and then multiplies by 2.”
Answer: g(y) = 2(y + 3)
HW#1: Functions
Now you should be able to finish Pages 1 – 4 of the functions hw (collected tomorrow)
Use your notes/practice problems as you are finishing the hw
SWBAT… find the domain and range of functions
Agenda 1. WU (15 min)2. Domain & range practice problems (20 min)
Warm-Up:
Do the problems on the back of this week’s agenda (read the examples on the top of the sheet)
HW#1: Functions – Page 5 – 6
Tues, 10/25
Real Numbers: All numbers on the number line. This includes positives and negatives, integers and rational numbers, square roots, cube roots , π, etc.
The domain of a function is the set of numbers that you can plug into the function and get out something that makes sense.
When finding the domain, remember:1. The denominator (bottom) of a fraction cannot be zero
2. The values under a square root sign must be positive
Ex 1: What is the domain of ?4 xy
The range of a function is the possible y values of a function that result when we substitute all the possible x-values into the function.
When finding the domain, remember:1. Substitute different x-values into the expression to see what is
happening for y.
2. Draw a sketch! In math, it's very true that a picture is worth a thousand words
Ex: What is the range of ?4 xy
Ex 2: What is the domain of ?
Domain: x ≥ 1
Range: y ≥ 0
1 xy
Ex 2: Find the domain and range for the function f(x) = x2 + 2. Explain. The domain is “all real numbers of x” because there are no restrictions on the value of x. The range is “y ≥ 2” since x2 + 2 is never less than 2.
Ex 3: Find the domain and range for the function f(x) = x2 – 5. Explain. The domain is “all real numbers of x” because there are no restrictions on the value of x. The range is “y ≥ -5” since x2 – 5 is never less than -5.
To use the symbols of algebra, we could write the domain as
xx :Does that look like a foreign
language?Let’s translate:
The curly braces just tell us we have a set of numbers.
The x reminds us that our set contains x-values.
x
The colon says, such that
:x
: xx
The symbol that looks like an e says, belongs to . . .
And the cursive, or script, R is short for the set of real numbers.
