1.1 Representing Functions
• Function is said to be the central idea in the study of
mathematics. In many situations, there is a mathematical
function in which one quality according to some definite
rule.
• Physical situations and number patterns can be
represented by tables, graphs, verbal rules and equations
where their interrelationship can be studied and analyzed
(Bernabe, 2006).
What is Function?
• A function is a rule of correspondence between two non-
empty sets, such that, to each element of the first set
called domain, there corresponds one and only one
element of the second set called range.
• Functions are often denoted by any letter of the English
alphabet or Greek character. If f is a function and x is
an element in its domain, then, to each element; the
functions f associates exactly one value to be denoted
by f(x).
