MAT 145
Functions
A function f is a rule that assigns to
each element x in a set A exactly
one element, called f(x), in a set B.

MAT 145
One-to-One Functions
A one-to-one function is a function for which each element y in set B corresponds to exactly one element x in set A.
Wednesday, January 16, 2013
A function f is a rule that assigns to
each element x in a set A exactly
one element, called f(x), in a set B.
MAT 145
Set A is the domain of the function.
Set B is the range of the function.
What does f(x) represent?

Domain and Range of Functions
A function f is a rule that assigns to
each element x in a set A exactly
one element, called f(x), in a set B.
MAT 145
Graphs provide a visual representation of the relationship between input (x) and output (y) by plotting ordered pairs (x,y), such that , y = f(x), on orthogonal (right-angled) axes.
Sketch the graphs and label at least three ordered pairs for these functions.

Function NotationWhat does f(x) = 3x + 5
represent?
Using y = f(x) as just described, determine and simplify each of the following.
(a)f(2) (b) f(−4) (c) f() (d) f(x-1)
(e)f(2x+4) (f) f(t2+7t) (g) f(f(x))
(h) f(x + h) (i) f(x + h) – f(x)

MAT 145
Families of FunctionsAlgebraic—functions formed by using algebraic operations (+, -, x, ÷, nth root of a , a to the mth power , such that m and n are rational) on coefficients and variables
Polynomial (Constant, Linear, Quadratic, Cubic, Quartic, and others)
Power Root Rational
Transcendental—non-algebraic functions (i.e., those that “transcend” algebra)
Trigonometric Exponential Logarithmic
Others—Piecewise, Absolute Value, Greatest Integer, and others

MAT 145
Operating on FunctionsAlgebra of functions: apply one or more of the four basic operations (+,−,,) to two or more functions.
Wednesday, January 16, 2013
Composition of functions: putting together two or more functions in a particular way. When two functions are composed, one is evaluated within the other.
