relations are functions
EVALUATING FUNCTIONS
Evaluating function is the process of
determining the value of the function at
the number assigned to a given variable
It is possible to identify specific ordered
pairs by substituting certain values as
the input and getting a different value
as the output
PIECEWISE FUNCTIONS
A piecewise function is a type of
function divided into different
“subfunctions” where each
“subfunction” is applied to certain parts
or interval of the function’s domain.
Some situations can only be described
by more than one formula, depending
on the value of the independent
variable
