9. Copyright © 2007 Pearson Education, Inc. Publishing as Pearson Prentice Hall Slide 1- 9 Functions A rule that assigns to each element in one set a unique element in another set is called a function. A function is like a machine that assigns a unique output to every allowable input. The inputs make up the domain of the function; the outputs make up the range.

10. Copyright © 2007 Pearson Education, Inc. Publishing as Pearson Prentice Hall Slide 1- 10 Function A function from a set D to a set R is a rule that assigns a unique element in R to each element in D. In this definition, D is the domain of the function and R is a set containing the range.

15. Copyright © 2007 Pearson Education, Inc. Publishing as Pearson Prentice Hall Slide 1- 15 Domains and Ranges The domains and ranges of many real-valued functions of a real variable are intervals or combinations of intervals. The intervals may be open, closed or half-open, finite or infinite. The endpoints of an interval make up the interval’s boundary and are called boundary points. The remaining points make up the interval’s interior and are called interior points.

16. Copyright © 2007 Pearson Education, Inc. Publishing as Pearson Prentice Hall Slide 1- 16 Domains and Ranges Closed intervals contain their boundary points. Open intervals contain no boundary points

20. Copyright © 2007 Pearson Education, Inc. Publishing as Pearson Prentice Hall Slide 1- 20 Viewing and Interpreting Graphs Recognize that the graph is reasonable. See all the important characteristics of the graph. Interpret those characteristics. Recognize grapher failure. Graphing with a graphing calculator requires that you develop graph viewing skills.

21. Copyright © 2007 Pearson Education, Inc. Publishing as Pearson Prentice Hall Slide 1- 21 Viewing and Interpreting Graphs Being able to recognize that a graph is reasonable comes with experience. You need to know the basic functions, their graphs, and how changes in their equations affect the graphs. Grapher failure occurs when the graph produced by a grapher is less than precise – or even incorrect – usually due to the limitations of the screen resolution of the grapher.

23. Copyright © 2007 Pearson Education, Inc. Publishing as Pearson Prentice Hall Slide 1- 23 Even Functions and Odd Functions-Symmetry The graphs of even and odd functions have important symmetry properties.

24. Copyright © 2007 Pearson Education, Inc. Publishing as Pearson Prentice Hall Slide 1- 24 Even Functions and Odd Functions-Symmetry The graph of an even function is symmetric about the y-axis. A point (x,y) lies on the graph if and only if the point (-x,y) lies on the graph. The graph of an odd function is symmetric about the origin. A point (x,y) lies on the graph if and only if the point (-x,-y) lies on the graph.

27. Copyright © 2007 Pearson Education, Inc. Publishing as Pearson Prentice Hall Slide 1- 27 Functions Defined in Pieces While some functions are defined by single formulas, others are defined by applying different formulas to different parts of their domain. These are called piecewise functions.
