GRAPH OF FUNCTIONS

• A relation can be described as a graph

a. A = {(-5, -5), (-3, -3), (-1, -1), (1, 1),(3, 3), (5, 5)}

Since the domain is limited to the set D = {-5, -3, -1, 1, 3, 5} , points should not be connected

b. y = 2x + 1

x -2 -1 0 1 2

y

An Equation can also be described as a graph

b. y = 2x + 1

x -2 -1 0 1 2

y -3

An Equation can also be described as a graph

b. y = 2x + 1

x -2 -1 0 1 2

y -3 -1

An Equation can also be described as a graph

b. y = 2x + 1

x -2 -1 0 1 2

The Vertical Line Test

• A graph of a relation is a function if any vertical line drawn passing through the graph intersects it at exactly one point.

Determine which of the following graphs of relation represents a function.

• Constant Functions A constant function C consists of a single real number k in its range

for all real numbers x in its domain.

IDENTITY FUNCTION

If the domain is specified to be the set of all real numbers, the range of the identity function is also the set of all real numbers

I(x) = x

• Some points on the graph of an I(x) = x are

(-2, -2), (-1, -1), (0, 0),(1, 1), (2, 2)

POLYNOMIAL FUNCTIONS

A constant function is a polynomial function of the degree 0. If a polynomial function is of the first degree, then it is called a linear function

If a polynomial function is of the second degree, then it is called a quadratic

function

A quadratic function is a parabola.

The range for both function is {y ǀ y > 0 }

Absolute Value Functions:

f (x) = x

The domain of an absolute value function is the set of real numbers and the range is {f(x) f(x) > 0 }

Example: In one Cartesian plane, draw the graph and determine the domain and range of each function.

a. y = x + 2

b. y = x - 2

y = x

y = x - 2y = x + 2

The domain for both function is the set of all real numbers

The range for both function is {y ǀ y > 0 }

Simply shift to the left

Simply shift to the right

Example: In one Cartesian plane, draw the graph and determine the domain and range of each function.

a. y = x + 2

b. y = x - 2

y = x

y = x - 2

y = x + 2

The domain for both function is the set of all real numbers

The range for both function is {y ǀ y > -2 }

The absolute sign does not affect the constant.

• Draw the graph of each function. Determine its domain and range.
