1. Section 1.2 Basics of Functions

2. Relations

4. Example Find the domain and the range.

5. Functions

6. A relation in which each member of the domain corresponds to exactly one member of the range is a function. Notice that more than one element in the domain can correspond to the same element in the range. Aerobics and tennis both burn 505 calories per hour.

7. Is this a function? Does each member of the domain correspond to precisely one member of the range? This relation is not a function because there is a member of the domain that corresponds to two members of the range. 505 corresponds to aerobics and tennis.

9. Example Determine whether each relation is a function?

10. Functions as Equations

13. Example Determine whether each equation defines y as a function of x.

14. Function Notation

19. Example Evaluate each of the following.

20. Example Evaluate each of the following.

21. Graphs of Functions

22. xf(x)=-2x(x,y)g(x)=-2x+3(x,y) -2f(-2)=4(-2,4)g(-2)=7(-2,7) f(-1)=2(-1,2)g(-1)=5(-1,5) 0f(0)=0(0,0)g(0)=3(0,3) 1f(1)=-2(1,-2)g(1)=1(1,1) 2f(2)=-4(2,-4)g(2)=-1(2,-1) See the next slide.

23. f(x) g(x)

24. Example Graph the following functions f(x)=3x-1 and g(x)=3x

25. The Vertical Line Test

26. The first graph is a function, the second is not.

27. Example Use the vertical line test to identify graphs in which y is a function of x.
