Lesson 1.4 Functions A function f from a set A to a set B is a relation that assigns to each element x in the set A exactly one element y in the set B. The set A is the domain (or set of inputs) of the function f, and the set B contains the range (or set of outputs).
Four Ways to Represent a Function “The input value x is the number of representatives from a state, and the output value of y is the number of senators.” • Verbally • Numerically • Graphically • Algebraically (2, 11), (2, 10), (3, 8), (4, 5) y = x2 + 2x + 1
Function Notation f(x) Ex 1) Evaluating a function g(x) = -x2 + 4x + 1 Find the function value for the following: a) g(2) b) g(t) c) g(x + 2) Replace all the x’s with the value of 2 g(t) = -(t)2 + 4(t) + 1 g(x +2) = -(x+2)2 + 4(x + 2) + 1 g(2) = -(2)2 + 4(2) + 1 g(t) = -t2 + 4t + 1 g(x + 2) = -(x+2)(x+2) + 4(x + 2) + 1 g(2) = -4+ 8 + 1 g(x + 2) = -(x2 + 4x + 4)+ 4(x + 2) + 1 g(2) = 5 g(x + 2) = -x2 - 4x - 4+ 4x + 8 + 1 g(x +2) = -x2 + 5
Evaluating a piecewise-defined function (two or more equations over a specified domain) Example 2) Evaluate the function when x = -1, 0, and 1 • It gives you two conditions: • Use x2 + 1, if x < 0 • Use x – 1, x ≥ 0 f(-1) = (-1)2 + 1 f(0) = 0 – 1 f(1) = 1 – 1 f(-1) = 1 + 1 f(0) = – 1 f(1) = 0 f(-1) = 2
Practice • Evaluate f(x) = x2 + 1 for: a) f(-4) b) f(t2) c) f(t + 1) • Evaluate for: a) f(-2) b) f(-1) c) f(0) 17 t4 + 1 t2 + 2t + 2 -3 -1 1
Finding the Domain of a Function There are exceptions to what values can be inputted into a function. For example: A fraction A square root Quadratic {x| x ≥ 0} {x| x is all real numbers} {x| x is all real numbers, x ≠ 0} Graphing the function also helps you see the domain.
Evaluating a Difference QuotientThe difference quotient is the slope of the secant line that goes through two points of a function. This slope is very important in calculus where it is used to define the derivative of function f. Evaluate f(x) = x2 – 4x + 7 Answer 2x + h – 4
