2. Relations and Functions Module 1 Lesson 1

3. What is a Relation? A ________ is a set of ordered pairs. When you group two or more points in a set, it is referred to as a relation. When you want to show that a set of points is a relation you list the points in _______. For example, if I want to show that the points (-3,1) ; (0, 2) ; (3, 3) ; & (6, 4) are a relation, it would be written like this: {(-3,1) ; (0, 2) ; (3, 3) ; (6, 4)}

4. Domain and Range Each ordered pair has two parts, an x-value and a y-value. The x-values of a given relation are called the ______. The ___-values of the relation are called the Range. When you list the domain and range of a relation, you place each (the domain and the range) in a separate set of braces.

5. For Example, 1. List the domain and the range of the relation {(-3,1) ; (0, 2) ; (3, 3) ; (6, 4)} Domain: { -3, 0, 3, 6} Range: _______ 2. List the domain and the range of the relation {(-3,3) ; (0, 2) ; (3, 3) ; (6, 4) ; ( 7, 7)} Domain: ________ Range: {3, 2, 4, 7} Notice! Even though the number 3 is listed twice in the relation, you only note the number _____ when you list the domain or range!

6. Finding Domain and Range from a graph What is the domain? The graph to the left is of y = x 2, and we can square any number we want. This makes the domain __________. On a graph, the domain corresponds to the ________ axis. Since that is the case, we need to look to the left and right to see if there are any end points or holes in the graph to help us find our domain. If the graph infinite to left and to the right, then the domain is represented by all real numbers.

7. If I plug any number into this function, am I ever going to be able to get a negative number as a result? No! The range of this function is all positive numbers which is represented by y ≥ 0. On a graph, the range corresponds to the vertical axis. We need to look up and down to see if there are any end points or holes to help us find our range. If the graph keeps going up and down with no endpoint then the range is all real numbers. However, this is not the case here. The graph does not ever go below the x-axis, never returning a negative range value. What's the range?

8. What is a Function? A function is a relation that assigns each ______ only one x-value. What does that mean? It means, in order for the relation to be considered a function, there cannot be any repeated values in the domain. There are two ways to see if a relation is a function: 1.Vertical Line Test 2._________

9. Using the Vertical Line Test Use the vertical line test to check if the relation is a function only if the relation is already graphed. 1. Hold a straightedge (pen, ruler, etc) vertical to your graph. 2. Drag the straightedge from left to right on the graph. 3.If the straightedge intersects the graph once in each spot, then it is a function. 4. If the straightedge intersects the graph more than once in any spot, it is not a function. A _______!

10. Examples of the Vertical Line Test

11. Mappings If the relation is not graphed, it is easier to use what is called a ________. When you are creating a mapping of a relation, you draw two ______. In one oval, list all the _______ values. In the other oval, list all the range values. Draw a line connecting the pairs of domain and range values. If any domain value ‘maps’ to two different range values, the relation is not a function. It’s easier than it sounds

12. Example of a Mapping Create a mapping of the following relation and state whether or not it is a function. {(-3,1) ; (0, 2) ; (3, 3) ; (6, 4)} Steps 1. Draw ovals 2. List domain 3. List range 4. Draw lines to connect -3 0 3 6 12341234 This relation is a _______ because each x-value maps to only one y-value.

13. Another Mapping Create a mapping of the following relation and state whether or not it is a function. {(-1,2) ; (1, 2) ; (5, 3) ; (6, 8)} 1 5 6 238238 Notice that even though there are two 2’s in the range, you only list the 2 once. This relation is a function because each x-value maps to only one y-value. It is _____________ if two x-values go to the same y-value. ……….

14. Last Mapping Create a mapping of the following relation and state whether or not it is a function. {(-4,-1) ; (-4, 0) ; (5, 1) ; (3, 9)} -4 5 3 0 1 9 This relation is NOT a function because the (-4) maps to the (-1) & the (0). It is ____________if one x-value goes to two different y-values. ………. Make sure to list the (-4) only once!

16. Practice Complete the following questions and check your answers on the next slide. 1. Identify the domain and range of the following relations: a. {(-4,-1) ; (-2, 2) ; (3, 1) ; (4, 2)} b. {(0,-6) ; (1, 2) ; (7, -4) ; (1, 4)} 2. Graph the following relations and use the vertical line test to see if the relation is a function. Connect the pairs in the order given. a. {(-3,-3) ; (0, 6) ; (3, -3)} b. {(0,6) ; (3, 3) ; (0, 0)} 3. Use a mapping to see if the following relations are functions: a. {(-4,-1) ; (-2, 2) ; (3, 1) ; (4, 2)} b. {(0,-6) ; (1, 2) ; (7, -4) ; (1, 4)}

18. Function Notation The equation that represents a function is called a _________. A function rule is written with two variables, x and y. It can also be written in function notation using f(x), where f(x) represent the y value. F(x) is read as ‘_______________’ When you are given a function rule, you can evaluate the function at a given domain value to find the corresponding range value or vice versa.

19. How to Evaluate a Function Rule To evaluate a function rule, substitute the value in for x and solve for y. Examples Evaluate the given function rules for f(2) which is a read as let x = 2. f(x)= x + 5 f(x)= 2x -1 f(x)= -x + 2 y=(2)+ 5 y= 7 y=2(2)-1 y= 4 – 1 y= 3 y=-(2)+2 y= -2 + 2 y= 0 ……….

20. When f(x) equals a number You can also be asked to let y equal a number and then solve for x. Examples Evaluate the given function rules for f(x) =2 which is a read as let y = 2. f(x)= x + 5 f(x)= 2x -1 f(x)= -x + 7 2= x + 5 x = ___ 2 =2x -1 3 = 2x x= ____ 2= -x+7 -5= -x x= ___ ……….

21. Evaluating for multiple values You can also be asked to find the range values for a given ______or vice versa. This is the same as before, but now you’re evaluating the same function rule for more than one number. The values that you are substituting in are x values, so they are apart of the domain. The values you are generating are y-values, so they are apart of the ______.

22. Example Find the range values of the function for the given domain. f(x) = -3x + 2 ; {-1, 0, 1, 2} y = -3x + 2 y = -3x + 2 y = -3(-1) + 2 y = -3(0) + 2 y = -3(1) + 2 y = -3(2) + 2 y = 3 + 2 y = 0 + 2 y = -3 + 2 y = -6 +2 y = __ y = ___ y = ___y = __ The range values for the given domain are { _________}. Steps 1. Sub in each domain value in one @ a time. 2. Solve for y in each 3. List y values in braces.

23. Find the domain Find the domain values of the function for the given the range values. f(x) = 2x - 7 ; {-3, -2, 4} y = 2x -7 y = 2x -7 y = 2x - 7 -3 = 2x - 7 -2 = 2x -7 4 = 2x - 7 4 = 2x 5 = 2x 11= 2x x= 2 x = 5/2 x= 11/2 The domain values for the given range are { _________}.

24. Practice 1. Find the range values of the function for the given domain. f(x) = 3x + 1 ; {-4, 0, 2} 2. Find the domain values of the function for the given range. f(x) = -2x + 3 ; {-5, -2, 6} Steps 1. Sub in each value in one @ a time. 2. Solve for the unknown in each 3. List results in braces.
