Functions

A function is a set of ordered pairs where for every x-value there is a unique y-value. The x-values are called the domain (left to right). The y-values are called the range (bottom to top). The vertical line test can determine if a graph is a function or not. If a vertical line only crosses the graph once, then the graph is a function.

Determine whether the following is a function. Give the domain and range of each relation.

{(10,8), (6, 4), (2,0), ( 2, 4)}I {(3, 4), (3, 2), (8,9), (1,0)}K

Properties of Graphs 1. Specific Values 2. Domain and Range 3. Intercepts-where the graph crosses the axes. Find the following: Use the graph to find:

( 2)f (3)f

For what value(s) of x does ( ) 4f x ? For what value(s) of x does ( ) 0f x ? Find the x-intercept(s):_____________ Find the y-intercept:_____________

Determine the domain, range, any intercepts and values.

AbsoluteValueFunctions

Absolute Function in General/Standard Form:

______________________________

Vertex (or turning around point) = ____________

The slope of right branch is ________________

The slope of left branch is ________________

When we graphed quadratic functions, we followed these steps:

Find the vertex. Determine the value of “a”. Plot the vertex. From the vertex, go over one unit (to the right and left) and then up or down “a”.

Applying this technique, graph the following functions. State the vertex, the domain, and the range.

Graphs of Polynomial Functions

In order to sketch a graph of a polynomial function, we need to look at the “end behavior” of the graph and the intercepts. The “end behavior” of the graph is determined by the leading term of the polynomial.

4 2( ) 4 3 2 5f x x x x

3 2( ) 5 7 2 5f x x x x

2 2( ) 3(5 1) ( 2)f x x x

2( ) ( 4) ( 2)f x x x

Summary: If the leading coefficient has an even power, then the end behavior is the same: both up or both down If the leading coefficient has an odd power, then the end behavior will be opposites: one up and one down

Intercepts:In order to find the y-intercept, set x = 0 and solve for y. In order to find the x-intercept, set y = 0 and solve for x. 2( ) ( 2) ( 1)f x x x x 3 2( ) 3 3f x x x x

“Multiplicity” of the x-intercepts 1. Multiplicity of 1 or single: the graph passes through the x-axis like a line. 2. Multiplicity of 2 or even: the graph passes “bounces” off the x-axis like a parabola. 3. Multiplicity of 3 or odd: the graph “squiggles” through the x-axis like a cubic function.

Zeros of Polynomial Functions

Some polynomials cannot be factored by traditional methods. The Rational Zero or Root Theorem gives us another method to find the x-intercepts or zeros of a polynomial. The theorem states that a list of possible rational zeros of a polynomial can be found by taking the factors of the constant term (p) and dividing them by the factors of the leading coefficient (q).

Make a list of possible rational zeros: 1. 3 2( ) 4 15f x x x 2. 5( ) 10 2 5f x x x

After making the list, we can use it along with synthetic division and the graph of the function to try and factor the polynomials and find the roots (zeros).

Domain of a Function

Finding the domain of a function: 1. The implied domain is the set of all real numbers for which the expression is defined. For all polynomial functions the domain is all real numbers or expressed in interval notation: , Ex. #1: 2( ) 5 6f x x x

But what about rational functions? The question one must ask when finding the domain is “Where is this function NOT defined?” 2. Rational Functions: This is a function that is comprised of a ratio of 2 polynomial functions. Thus, there is a denominator involved. We must always remember that

DIVISION BY ZERO IS UNDEFINED!! To determine the domain of a rational function, set the denominator equal to zero and solve. These are the values that are NOT acceptable.

Ex. #2: 2

3 40f x

x x Ex. #3:

1 1( )

9 9f x

Ex. #4:

3. Radical Functions: This is a function that is underneath some type of radical. Remember when taking the EVEN root of a negative number, the answer is imaginary. Imaginary numbers are NOT acceptable for real valued functions. To determine the domain of a radical function, set the radicand greater than or equal to zero and solve. These are the values that ARE acceptable. Ex. #5: ( ) 2f x x Ex. #6: ( ) 8 6f x x

Ex. #7: ( ) 3 5f x x x

Graphing Rational Functions

A rational function is the ratio of two polynomial functions. In order to sketch a graph, we must find all the intercepts and all the asymptotes.

Process for sketching a graph of a rational function: 1. Find the y-intercept by setting x = 0. 2. Find the x-intercept(s) by setting y = 0. 3. Find the vertical asymptotes by setting the denominator = 0. (The denominator of the reduced function.) 4. Find the horizontal asymptote (if one exists) by comparing degree of the numerator to the degree of

the denominator. 5. Plot the intercepts and graph the asymptotes. Plot a few additional points to complete the graph.

y-intercept: x-intercept(s): Vertical Asymptote(s): Horizontal Asymptote: If the degree of the numerator is equal to the degree of the denominator, then the horizontal asymptote will be:

coefficient of the leading term of the numerator

coefficient of the leading term of the denominatory

2 3( )

y-intercept: x-intercept(s): Vertical Asymptote(s): Horizontal Asymptote: If the degree of the numerator is less than the degree of the denominator, then the horizontal asymptote will ALWAYS be __________________

Inverse Functions

Review:DefinitionofaFunctionA function is a set of ordered pairs where for every x-value there is a unique y-value. Graphically: Use the vertical line test to determine if the graph is a function. Determine if the following graphs are functions?

OnetoOneFunctions(1–1functions)A function is said to be one to one if each y-value corresponds to only one x-value. Graphically: Use the horizontal line test to determine if the following functions are One to One Functions. Determine if the following funcitons are One to One Functions

WhatisanInverseFunction? Only one-to-one functions have inverse functions. A function and its inverse can be described as the "DO" and the "UNDO" functions. A function takes a starting value, performs some operation on this value, and creates an output answer. The inverse of this function takes the output answer, performs some operation on it, and arrives back at the original function's starting value.

Exponential Equations

An exponential equation has the variable in the exponent. The easiest way to solve

is to use the same base. ( x ya a )

Process: 1. Isolate the base. 2. Re-write each side of the equation with the same base. 3. Equate the exponents. 4. Solve.

Solve the following:

2 16x 2 14 64x

1 316 8x x 1

2 19 27x

An exponential equation has the variable in the exponent. When you cannot get the bases to be the same, you have to use logarithms to solve. We make use of the following logarithmic property:

log log pa ap M M or ln ln pp M M

Process:

1. Isolate the base. 2. Take the log (ln) of both sides of the equation. 3. Use the log property (above) to re-write the exponents as coefficients. 4. Solve. 5. Use a calculator to approximate the solution.

We will be using matrices to solve Systems of Linear Equations. A matrix is a rectangular array of numbers arranged in rows and columns placed inside brackets. The numbers inside the brackets of a matrix are called elements.

Example:

12 1 41

An Augmented Matrix is a matrix that is used to represent a system of Linear Equations. It has a vertical bar separating the columns of the matrix into 2 groups (one for the coefficients of the variables in the linear system and the other for the answers). o Note: If a variable is missing, we assign it the coefficient of ZERO. Rewrite the following system of equations in an augmented matrix System

System of Equations Augmented Matrix

3 5 12

One method to solve a system of linear equations using a matrix is to get the matrix in Echelon Form, which means to have only 1s in your main diagonal (going from upper‐left to lower‐right) and 0s below the ones.

Once you are in Echelon Form, you will use back substitution to solve your system.

Example:

1 2 1 0

0 1 2 3

0 0 1 2

RowOperations

There are 3 row operations that produce matrices that represent systems with the same solution set.

Row Operation Notation Example

Interchange 2 Rows 1 3R R 1 1 3 3

1 2 1 0

Multiply a Row by a non‐zero number

2 22R R 1 2 1 0

3 18 12 21

1 1 3 3

Multiply a Row by a non‐zero number and then add the product to any other row

To solve a system of linear equations using matrices we would

1. Write system as an augmented matrix 2. Use row operations to get row equivalent matrix in Row Echelon Form 3. Use Substitution to solve for the variables. Answer solution in an ordered triple.
