Functions

The document discusses functions including defining functions, determining if a set of ordered pairs represents a function, evaluating functions for given inputs, and performing operations on functions such as addition, subtraction, multiplication, division, and composition. Functions are defined as sets of ordered pairs where each element in the domain is mapped to exactly one element in the range. Examples are provided to demonstrate determining if a set is a function and evaluating functions for given inputs as well as performing the basic operations on functions.

Functions

Functions

- Is a set of ordered pairs such that no two distinct ordered pairs


have the same first elements
- All functions are considered relations but not all relations are
functions
- a function (f) from set A to set B is a rule of correspondence
that assigns to each element x in the set A exactly one element
y in set B.
- The set A is the DOMAIN of the function
- The set B is the RANGE of the function
Functions
Example: Determine whether the following ordered pairs is a function or not. If it is a
function identify its domain and range
1. (1,5)(2,6)(3,7)
2. (a,2)(b,3)(c,4)
3. (a,1)(b,1)(c,1)
4. (a,1)(a,2)(b,3)(c,4)
5. (1,1)(2,2)(3,3)(4,5)
6. (0,3)(1,5)(3,9)(6,15)
7. (0,-1)(1,0)(0,-2)(1,4)
8. (6,4)(8,5)(8,12)(2,-3)
9. (-1,1)(-1,2)(-1,3)(-1,4)
10.(4,0)(-5,-6)(2,4)(3,4)

Evaluating Functions

- Functions commonly use the symbol f(x).


-f(x) is read as “f of x”
- The symbol does not represent the function itself but it only
denotes the value of the second element given the first element x.
Example1: given f(x) = x + 2 and we wish to find to find the value of
f(3) then
f(3) = x + 2
f(3) = 3 + 2
f(3) = 5
Evaluating Functions

example 2. Given a function f(x) = 2x3 + 5x -1 where x is any real


number, find the value of function;
a. f(2)
b. f(-4)
c. f(5)
d. f(-3)

Operations of Functions

1. Sum of functions
-the sum of two functions is define by f and g, as the function
(f+g) x = f(x) + g(x)
2. Difference of two functions
-the difference of two functions is define by f and g, as the
function (f-g) x = f(x) - g(x)

-the product of two functions is define by f and g, as the
function (f)(g) x =

4. Quotient of two functions

function (f/g) x =

-the composite of two functions is define by f and g, as the
function ()x = f[g(x)]
