1.2 Functions and Their Properties When is a relation a function? A function from a set D to set R is that assigns every element in D (called ) to exactly one element in R (called ). Euler s function notation y = f(x), where x is the variable and y is the variable. Is it a function? Birthday rule: Instrument rule: Social Security rule: Are any of these one-to-one functions? Can you come up with other one-to-one functions in the real world? Are the following functions? 1. f(x) = x 2 2. x 2 + y = 1 3. g(x) = 5x + 6 4. y = x 1/3 5. y 2 + x = 1 6. y 2 = x 2 + 5 7. x = y + 2 Page5
What makes a function a function? Describe verbally Show numerically Algebraically Graphically Important Vocabulary for section 1.2 Domain, Range, dependent variable, independent variable, continuity, increasing, decreasing, boundedness, local and absolute extrema, end behavior What is the domain of a function? Definition: In your own words: Finding the Domain of a function without using the calculator. Let s try determining the domain of the following functions. Consider each problem 3 ways: Algebraically, Graphically Numerically. 1. h(x) = x + 5 2. f(x) = 5x 4 x 3. h(x) = 4 3x Page6
4. m(x) = 11 2x x 2 5. g(x) = 5 2x 4 3 6. r(x) = x 8 7. f(x) = log 2 x 8. m(x) = 4 x 9. r(x) = x 3 10. f(x) = 9 x 2 11. f(x) = x 2 9 Things to look for when finding the domain of a function algebraically: Page7
