    Evaluating a Function

    FUNCTIONS
    TERMINOLOGY
    A relation is any formula or rule that
    connects 2 sets of numbers.
    i.e. y = 2x + 3

    Domain: all the numbers that exist for x

    Range: all the numbers that exist for y
    Finding the Domain and
    Range of Graphs
    Domain, Range and
    Functions
    A function is a relationship where for
    every x value, there is only ONE y value
    OR
    A function is defined as a one-to-one
    relationship

    There are 2 ways to establish if a
    relationship is a function
    i) Mapping
    ii) Vertical line test
    One-to-one mapping:
    Is a function

    Many-to-one mapping:
    Is NOT a function
    Vertical line only
    cuts the graph in
    one place:
    Is a function
    Vertical line cuts the
    graph in more than one
    place:
    Is NOT a function
    Vertical Line Test
    INVERSE FUNCTIONS
    A function g(x) is the inverse of function f(x)
    if

    the domain of g(x) is the range of f(x) and

    the range of g(x) is the domain of f(x).

    i.e. the x and y values are interchanged

    Inverse of a Straight Line

    is a function

    We can put restrictions on
    the original parabola, so
    that the inverse will be a
    function.

    This should
    be second-
    knowledge!


    Write 625 in terms of base 5
    Since bases are the same
    We equate the exponents

    30 CANNOT be written in
    terms of base 5!
    ?? Now what ??
    We use LOGS

    Interesting! The Log Scale

    First interchange x and y


    The base of the
    exponent becomes the
    base of the log

    Finding the Remainder

    Complex Remainder Problem

    Understanding the
    Factor Theorem
    Complex Factor
    Theorem Problem
    Visualizing Factors &
    Remainders
    Calculating Remainders
    given Factors
    f(x) = x
    3
    + 3x
    2
    x 3


    Remainder = f( 1)
    = 1
    3
    + 3(1)
    2
    (1) 3
    = 0
    Therefore (x 1) is a factor

    Note! f(1) did not equal zero we would
    have to continue to find f(-1), f(2), f(3), f(-3)
    etc until the remainder equalled 0.

    1. Solve for x: f(x) = x
    3
    x
    2
    8x +12

    f(1) = (1)
    3
    (1)
    2
    8(1) +12 = 4
    f(2) = (2)
    3
    (2)
    2
    8(2) +12 = 0
    x 2 is a factor

    f(x) = x
    3
    x
    2
    8x +12

    0 = (x 2) (x
    2
    + 1x 6)
    0 = (x 2) (x + 3) (x 2)
    x = 2 or x = -3 or x = 2
    x 1 is
    NOT a
    factor
    2. Solve for x: f(x) = 2x
    3
    7x
    2
    + 2x + 3

    f(1) = (1)
    3
    (1)
    2
    8(1) +12 = 4
    x 1 is a factor

    f(x) = 2x
    3
    7x
    2
    + 2x + 3

    0 = (x 1) (2x
    2
    5x 3)
    0 = (x 1) (2x + 1) (x 3)
    x = 1 or x = - or x = 3
