This document discusses functions and their graphs. It provides examples of how to find the graph of a function by:
1) Determining the domain, or possible x-values that can be input into the function
2) Calculating the output or y-values f(x) by plugging domain values into the function
3) Plotting the coordinate pairs (x, f(x)) to graph the relationship between inputs and outputs
For instance, it shows how to graph y=x^2 by finding f(x) for x=-3 to x=3, determining the parabola shape. It emphasizes remembering common function graphs and finding domains and ranges to sketch graphs more quickly.

FUNCTION AND GRAPH
Chapter 1.2 PROPERTIES OF FUNCTION
Function Lets assume we have a function : Y = x 2
This function can be written as: f(x) = x 2
Horizontal line In graph will represent x axis and Vertical line will represent f(x)
Finding graph of a function f(x) = x 2
Now, if x = 0; thn f(0) = (0) 2 =0 x = 1; thn f(1) = (1) 2 =1 x = 2; thn f(2) = (2) 2 =4 x = 3; thn f(3) = (3) 2 =9 . x = -1; thn f(-1) = (-1) 2 =1 x = -2; thn f(-2) = (-2) 2 =4 x = -3; thn f(-3) = (-3) 2 =9 ..
Graph co-ordinates So, the coordinates of x 2 are, (x, f(x)) =(0,0), (1,1), (2,4), (3, 9), (-1,1), (-2,4), (-3, 9) as far as u can go
DOMAIN u can find out graph of any function u are given using the method I just showed. Assume a value of x and find out the value of f(x) against tht value.
f(x) = x 2 x = 3; thn f(3) = (3) 2 =9 Here for a function like x 2 u can choose any value of x. HOWEVER,,, some functions has limitation, u can not just put any value for x. For example : How to find domain
f(x) = Value of x MUST BE POSITIVE;
f(x)= Value of x MUST NOT BE ZERO; 1. Value inside square-root must be POSITIVE (cz square-root cant process negative numbers
2. Denominator must not be ZERO
Example: Find the Domain of the following equations: y 2 + x 2 = 25 Solution: y 2 + x 2 = 25 y 2 = 25 - x 2 y = +
f(x)= | |
so, 25 - x 2 > 0
x 2 <25 x < +5
x < |5|
So value of x will be equal or less thn 5 and more thn -5
NOTE: In calculus we write +a as |a|
So, |a| = a & -a
RULES: |-a| = |a|
|ab| = |a| |b|
|a/b| = |a| / |b| (b must not be ZERO)
|a+b| < |a| + |b|
..continuation of previous slide value of x will be equal to 5 or less thn 5 and more thn -5 can e written as
-5<x<5
So, f(x) = | | = & -
So you have to find f(5), f(4), f(3), f(2), f(1), f(0), f(-1), f(-2), f(-3), f(-4), f(-5) For both & - DO YOURSELF
..continuation of previous slide HINTS: FOR, FOR, - find f(5), f(4), f(3), f(2), f(1), f(0), f(-1), f(-2), f(-3), f(-4), f(-5) For and draw the graph AND find f(5), f(4), f(3), f(2), f(1), f(0), f(-1), f(-2), f(-3), f(-4), f(-5) For - and draw the graph U can chk previous slide no 3 for more details THE GRAPH OF THE MATH WILL LOOK LIKE THIS:
Summary Find f(x) from y 2 + x 2 = 25 Which is f(x)= | | Find domain of x which is -5<x<5 means , find f(x) for x = - 5, -4,-3, -2, -1, 0, 1, 2, 3, 4, 5
Which is f(-5), f(-4).f(0)..f(4), f(-5) For both & - And draw graph for each of them
DURING EXAM U WILL GET MAX 5 MINS TO COMPLETE ALL THESE STEPS SO U NEED TO KNW THE properties of graphs..TO FINISH THIS MATH MORE QUICKLY .
Properties of graph. x , x 2 , x 3, , 1/x, sin x, cos x, tanx,
All of them has different type of shapes whn u convert them into graph. JUST REMEMBER THIS SHAPES OF GRAPHS ACCORDING TO THEIR EQUATIONS.
ONCE U SEE AN EQUATION, IF CAN REMEMER THE PROPERTIES , U CAN IMAGINE HOW THE GRAPH WILL LOOK LIKE..
SO JUST FIND DOMAIN & RANGE, put them into the graph and draw the shape..u dnt hav to go to every single coordinate to find the shape.
DOMAIN & RANGE IF f(x)=
THN, domain : -5<x<5
And range : f(-5) < f(x) <f(5) HOMEWORK Find domain range and graph for : a.) y = 1/(x-5) b) y = (1/x) -5 c) y 2 = x 2 -4 d) y = 9 - x 2
so, f(x) = x+2 this is the tricky part.. u can put any value for x when f(x) = x+2; BUT.. our main function is f(x) = (x 2 - 4) / (x-2) HERE, x MUST NOT BE 2. cz if x = 2 thn denominator is is 2-2 = 0. so... even though f(x) = x+2 , domain is any value of X except 2. Example: DRAW THE GRAPH of f(x) this math, there are 3 conditions of f(x) according to the value x. solution: ..continuation of previous slide so... f(-3) = 0 f (-2) = 0 f(-1) = 0 f(0) = 1 f( 1) = 0 f(2) =2 f(3) =3 f(4) = 4 ....
TRY these at home find the graph of f(x) = tanx (hints: tanx =sinx/cosx ; so cosx must NOT be 0)
((hints: x-1 > 0 so, x > 1...so find out f(1), f(2)..till f() f(5) or, f(6)
