FUNCTIONS

DOMAIN
- it is the set of first coordinates.

RANGE
- it is the set of second coordinates.

Example: Find the domain and range of the given ordered pairs.
{(1,-5), (3,-4), (5,-3), (7,-2), (9,-1)}

Domain: {1, 3, 5, 7, 9}
Range: {-5, -4, -3, -2, -1}
RELATION
- it is a set of ordered pairs.

FUNCTION
- it is a relation in which each element of the domain
corresponds to exactly one element of the range.

Example: Which of the following relations are functions?


✔
X
✔
Functions can be represented in different ways.
x 1 2 3 4 5
1. a table of values y 2 4 6 8 10

2. ordered pairs { ( 2 ,− 1 ) , ( 4 , 0 ) , ( 6 ,1 ) , ( 8 , 2 ) }

3. graph

4. an equation

𝑦 =5 𝑥 − 10
VERTICAL LINE TEST
- a graph represents a function if and only if each
vertical line intersects the graph at most once.

Example: Which of the following graphs can be graphs of


functions?

FUNCTION NOT NOT FUNCTION


To identify an equation that describes a function, you need
to:

1. Identify the input values, or independent variable, usually


represented by x.
2. Identify the output values, or dependent variable, usually
represented by y or f(x).
3. Check if every input value leads to exactly one output
value by substituting different values of x into the equation
and solving for y or f(x).
4. If the equation passes the test, it is a function. If it fails the
test, it is not a function.
Example: Which of the following equations describe a
function?

1. FUNCTION

2. NOT

3. FUNCTION

4. NOT
