● A function is a special kind of relation in which no two distinct ordered

pairs have the same first element.


● The value that a function takes in is called the input or the independent
variable while the corresponding value that it produces is the output or
the dependent variable.
● There are several ways on how to write a function, shown below:
Function Description
Notation
f ( x )=2 x +6
y is written as a function of x, or f (x)

x → 2 x+ 6
The arrow is read as “is mapped to.”
f : x →2 x +6
The colon symbol (:) is read as “such that.”
f ={ ( x , y )∨ y =2 x +6 }
The function f is written as a set.

● A piecewise function is a function composed of two or more expressions


for the different parts of the domain.
● A relation is a set of objects, such as numbers, grouped together which
may or may not represent a pattern; simply a set of ordered pairs that
are arranged in an orderly manner
● A one-to-one correspondence is where each value of the independent
variable (x ) is unique and is associated with a unique value of the
dependent variable ( y )
● A many-to-one correspondence is where two or more values of x is
associated with the same value of y
● A one-to-many correspondence is where some values of x are associated
with more than one value of y
● A many-to-many correspondence is where some values of x and y are
associated with more than one value of their counterpart
●
● A function is a special kind of relation in which no two distinct ordered
pairs have the same first element.
● A vertical line test can be used to determine if a graph represents a
function.
● A table of values is a graphic organizer or chart that helps determine two
or more points that can be used in creating graphs.

variable 𝑥 that have corresponding values of the dependent variable 𝑦.


● The domain of a function is the set of all values of the independent

● The range of a function is the set of all values of y that can be obtained
from the possible values of x.
● A linear function is a function that has a degree of 1 and whose graph is a
straight line. The domain and range of a linear function are both the set
of real numbers (R).
● A quadratic function is a function that has a degree of 2 and whose graph
is a parabola. The domain of a quadratic function is the set of real
numbers.
● A polynomial function is a function involving nonnegative integer powers
of the independent variable. The domain of a polynomial function is the
set of real numbers; while, the range of a polynomial function whose
degree is odd is the set of real numbers.
● A rational function is a function that can be expressed as a ratio of two
polynomials. The domain of a rational function is the set of real numbers
except the zeros of its denominator.
● A radical function is a function that contains radical expressions. The
domain of a radical function is the set of real numbers except those that
make the radicand of radicals with even index negative.
● Addition of Functions. Given two functions f (x) and g(x ), their sum is
denoted by ( f +g ) ( x ). This is defined by ( f +g ) ( x ) =f ( x )+ g ( x ).
● Subtraction of Functions. Given two functions f (x) and g ( x ), their difference
is denoted by ( f −g ) ( x ). This is defined by ( f −g ) ( x )=f ( x )−g (x).
● The product of two functions f ( x ) and g ( x ) is denoted by ( f ∙ g ) ( x ). This product
is defined as ( f ∙ g ) ( x )=f ( x ) ∙ g ( x ).
