Functions and Their Graphs 1.2 – Functions

Vocab Function = A set of ordered pairs that has each input (x) giving exactly one output (y) Ex: Function or not? In a function, one input can’t give 2 different outputs!

More Vocab (x, y) = (input, output) f(x) is another way to write an output Domain = the set of all inputs (x) Range = the set of all outputs (y) Ex: For the function f(x) = x – 3 , evaluate the following: f(-3) f(x+1)

Ex: For the function f(x) = 2 – x2 , evaluate the following: Ex: For the function f(x) = 2 – x2 , evaluate the following: f(x+1) Ex: For the function f(x) = x2 + x , evaluate the following: f(2x)

Ex: For the function f(x) = x2 – 2x + 3, evaluate the following: Ex: For the function f(x) = x2 – 2x + 3, evaluate the following: f(x+h)

Ex: For the function f(x) = 2x2 – 3 , evaluate the following: Ex: For the function f(x) = 2x2 – 3 , evaluate the following: The difference quotient

f(x) = 5x + 6. Find f(x – 3). 5x – 3 5x + 3 5x – 9 5x – 15

f(x) = 2x – x2 . Find f(x + 1). -x2 + 1 -x2 + 2x + 1 -x2 +4x + 3 -x2

Ex: The function below is a piecewise function. Find f(0) and f(1). Ex: The function below is a piecewise function. Find f(0) and f(1). Since 0<1, use the top function for f(0). f(0) = -3! Since 1≥1, use the bottom function for f(1). f(1) = -2!

More Vocab y = x2 means y is a function of x Y is not a function of x when a ± is in play Ex: Which of these has y as a function of x? x2 – y = 7 Solve for y first… - y = 7 – x2 y = x2 – 7 … no ± means YES! x2 + y2 = 2x y2 = 2x – x2 y = … so NO!

Finding Domain and Range The domain (set of all x’s) is always assumed to be all real numbers unless some values cannot create outputs (y’s). Ex: Find the domain of the following functions: y = 2x – 3 Any x will produce a y, so the domain is xϵℝ (all reals) y = The square root can’t be negative, so the domain is x≥0 y = The denominator can’t be 0, so 2x – 4 ≠0… …x≠2

Finding Domain and Range To find range, graph the function and infer the range (set of all y’s). Ex: Find the domain and range of the function Graph the function first. For the domain, we know from the equation given that x ≥ 3. Our graph confirms that. For the range, the graph shows us that there are no negative values for y, and the values will continue to increase as x increases. Range: y ≥ 0

What is the domain? xϵℝ -2≤x≤2 x≥0 -2<x<2

What is the domain? xϵℝ x ≠ -2 x ≠ 3 x ≠ -2 and x ≠ 3

What is the range? yϵℝ y ≠ 5 y < -5 y ≥ -5

Vertical Line Test Vertical is up and down! Vertical Line Test: If you can draw some vertical line on a graph and it goes through MORE THAN ONE point, the graph is NOT a function. Ex: Are these graphs functions?

Vocab As we read left to right, the function to the right is… …decreasing in the red region Decreasing for x<-1, so we write to indicate that y decreases over that x interval …constant in the blue region Constant for -1≤x≤2, so we write …increasing in the green region Increasing for x>2, so we write

Vocab When a function goes from increasing to decreasing (or visa versa), it will have a relative minimum or a relative maximum. The graph below has a relative maximum at (-2, 2) and a relative minimum at (1, -2). A graph can have any amount of relative minima or maxima.

Functions A function is even if it is symmetric about the y-axis f(-x) = f(x) A function is odd if it is symmetric about the origin f(-x) = -f(x) A graph symmetric about the x-axis is… …not a function!

The function y = 4x2 – 2 is… Even Odd None of the above Not a function

The function y = 1/x is… Even Odd None of the above Not a function

The function y = x3 – x is… Even Odd None of the above Not a function
