Introducing functions × 3 + 2 x y Afunction is a rule which maps one number, sometimes called the input or x, onto another number, sometimes called the output or y. A function can be illustrated using a function diagram to show the operations performed on the input. A function can be written as anequation. For example, y = 3x + 2. A function can can also be be written with a mapping arrow. For example, x 3x + 2.

Coordinate pairs When we write a coordinate, for example, (3, 5) (3, 5) (6, 2) x-coordinate y-coordinate the first number is called the x-coordinateand the second number is called the y-coordinate. the first number is called the x-coordinateand the second number is called the y-coordinate. Together, the x-coordinate and the y-coordinate are called a coordinate pair.
Graphs parallel to the y-axis y x What do these coordinate pairs have in common? (2, 3), (2, 1), (2, –2), (2, 4), (2, 0) and (2, –3)? The x-coordinate in each pair is equal to 2. Look what happens when these points are plotted on a graph. All of the points lie on a straight line parallel to the y-axis. Name five other points that will lie on this line. O This line is called x = 2. x = 2
Graphs parallel to the y-axis y x All graphs of the form x = c, where c is any number, will be parallel to the y-axis and will cut the x-axis at the point (c, 0). O x = –10 x = –3 x = 4 x = 9
Graphs parallel to the x-axis y x What do these coordinate pairs have in common? (0, 1), (3, 1), (–2, 1), (2, 1), (1, 1) and (–3, 1)? The y-coordinate in each pair is equal to 1. Look what happens when these points are plotted on a graph. All of the points lie on a straight line parallel to the x-axis. y = 1 Name five other points that will lie on this line. O This line is called y = 1.
Graphs parallel to the x-axis y x All graphs of the form y = c, where c is any number, will be parallel to the x-axis and will cut the y-axis at the point (0, c). y = 5 y = 3 O y = –2 y = –5
Drawing graphs of functions The x-coordinate and the y-coordinate in a coordinate pair can be linked by a function. What do these coordinate pairs have in common? (1, 3), (4, 6), (–2, 0), (0, 2), (–1, 1) and (3.5, 5.5)? In each pair, the y-coordinate is 2 more than the x-coordinate. These coordinates are linked by the function: y = x + 2 We can draw a graph of the function y = x + 2 by plotting points that obey this function.
Drawing graphs of functions x –3 –2 –1 0 1 2 3 y = x + 3 Given a function, we can find coordinate points that obey the function by constructing a table of values. Suppose we want to plot points that obey the function y = x + 3 We can use a table as follows: 0 1 2 3 4 5 6 (–3, 0) (–2, 1) (–1, 2) (0, 3) (1, 4) (2, 5) (3, 6)
Drawing graphs of functions y x –3 –2 –1 0 1 2 3 y = x – 2 x To draw a graph of y = x– 2: 1) Complete a table of values: y = x– 2 –5 –4 –3 –2 –1 0 1 O 2) Plot the points on a coordinate grid. 3) Draw a line through the points. 4) Label the line. 5) Check that other points on the line fit the rule.
The equation of a straight line y = mx + c The general equation of a straight line can be written as: The value of m tells us the gradient of the line. The value of c tells us where the line crosses the y-axis. This is called the y-interceptand it has the coordinate (0, c). For example, the line y = 3x + 4 has a gradient of 3 and crosses the y-axis at the point (0, 4).
The gradient and the y-intercept 1 x 2 2 Complete this table: 3 (0, 4) (0, –5) (0, 2) –3 (0, 0) y = x y = –2x– 7 (0, –7)
Rearranging equations into the form y = mx + c The equation of a straight line is 2y+x = 4. Find the gradient and the y-intercept of the line. 1 2 –x + 4 y = 2 y = –x + 2 Sometimes the equation of a straight line graph is not given in the form y = mx + c. We can rearrange the equation by transforming both sides in the same way: 2y + x = 4 2y = –x + 4
Rearranging equations into the form y = mx + c 1 1 y = –x + 2 2 2 – Sometimes the equation of a straight line graph is not given in the form y = mx + c. The equation of a straight line is 2y+x = 4. Find the gradient and the y-intercept of the line. Once the equation is in the form y = mx + c we can determine the value of the gradient and the y-intercept. So the gradient of the line is 2. and the y-intercept is

Substituting values into equations A line with the equation y = mx + 5 passes through the point (3, 11). What is the value of m? To solve this problem we can substitute x = 3 and y = 11 into the equation y = mx + 5. This gives us: 11 = 3m + 5 Subtracting 5: 6 = 3m Dividing by 3: 2 = m m = 2 The equation of the line is therefore y = 2x + 5.
