Can I create equations in two variables to represent the relationship between two
variables?
Writing Functions
You buy a printer for $80 and then pay $15 for each ink cartridge that you use. A
function relating the cost, Y (in dollars), of operating the printer
to the number of cartridges used, x:
Y = 15+ 80.
Domain: Set of input values
Range: Set of output values
Let’s talk about the parts of this function
Complete the table to represent the total cost for 0 to 4 cartridges.
Number of cartridges
Total Cost
0

4
Graph the function from the tableCHOOSE A REASONABLE SCALE
What is the initial value of the cost function? What does it represent?
What number of cartridges corresponds to the initial cost?
Define the domain. Define the range. What would the total cost be if you
purchased 17 cartridges? How would your cost change if the printer
cost $90?
Let’s analyze this function
Andrea receives a $40 gift card to use a town pool. It costs her $8 per visit to swim. A function relating the value of the gift card to the number of visits.
Write an function to represent this situation.
Make a table of values.
Graph the function
Now you try:
What is the initial value? (1 talk to 2)
What is the difference between a given card value and the previous card value? (2 talk to 1)
Identify the domain and the range of the function using set notation (1 talk to 2)
Is it possible for the card to have a value of $35? Why or why not? (2 talk to 1)
