WHAT IS A FUNCTION?
If a variable y depends on a variable x in such a way that each value of x determines exactly one value of y, then we say that y is a function of x.

COMMON WAYS OF REPRESENTING FUNCTIONS
Numerically by tables Geometrically by graphs Algebraically by formulas Verbally

DENOTING FUNCTIONS BY LETTERS OF THE ALPHABET
In the 18th century, a clever chap by the name of Leonhard Euler came up with the idea to represent functions using letters:
A functionis a rule that associates a unique output with each input. If the input is denoted by , then the output is denoted by (read “of ”).
9
INDEPENDENT AND DEPENDENT VARIABLES
Sometimes its useful to denote the output by a single letter, say , and write
You can have other names like ... or even if you want.
Independent variable (or argument)
Dependent variable

EXAMPLE OF A FUNCTION
A tree grows 20 cm every year, so the height of the tree is related to its age using the function :
So, if the age is 10 years, the height is:
age
0 0
1 20
3.2 64
15 300
... ...
11
EXAMPLE OF A FUNCTION (2)
The equation
is in the form where
12
GRAPHS OF FUNCTIONS
A very useful way of representing functions is through graphs.
13
THE VERTICAL LINE TEST
A curve in the -plane is the graph of some function if and only if no vertical line intersects the curve more than once.
So which one of these is a function?
14
THE ABSOLUTE VALUE FUNCTION
The effect of taking the absolute value of a number is to strip away the minus sign if the number is negative and to leave the number unchanged if it is non-negative.
For example
15
WHAT IS THE GRAPH OF ?
𝑓 (𝑥 )={ 𝑥 , 𝑥≥00 ,𝑥=0− 𝑥 ,𝑥<0
16
PROPERTIES OF ABSOLUTE VALUES
If a and b are real numbers, then:
,
17
PIECEWISE FUNCTIONS
The function is an example of a piecewise function.
A piecewise-defined function (also called a piecewise function or a hybrid function) is a function which is defined by multiple sub-functions, each sub-function applying to a certain interval of the main function's domain (a sub-domain).
18
PIECEWISE FUNCTIONS
𝑓 (𝑥 )={ 𝑥2 , 𝑥<26 ,𝑥=2
10−𝑥 , 𝑥>210−𝑥 , 𝑥≤6
19
EQUATION FOR A CIRCLE
The equation for a circle can be re-written as a piecewise function.
20
DOMAIN AND RANGE OF A FUNCTION
For any function , The domainis the set of all the values that
can have. The range is the set of all possible values
of .
For example, if , Domain: Range:
21
DOMAIN AND RANGE OF A FUNCTION
The domain and range of a function can be easily pictured by projecting the graph of onto the coordinate axes.
For example, what is the domain and range of ?
22
NEW FUNCTIONS FROM OLD
Arithmetic operations that can be performed on a function:
23
For and , find all the combinations
24
COMPOSITION OF FUNCTIONS
It is possible to composite functions. If and are functions then the composite function can be described by the following equation:
25
For and , find and
26
INVERSE FUNCTIONS
27
INVERSE FUNCTIONS
Let’s look at an example. The function can be represented as a diagram,
The inverse of this function just goes the other way,
So the inverse is
28
For , draw it and its inverse
29
INVERSE TRIGONOMETRIC FUNCTIONS
Inverse trigonometric functions are only valid in the following domains:
Otherwise has infinitely many solutions.
Inverse trigonometric functions should be represented using or , avoid using .
30
EXPONENTS
Exponentiation is a mathematical operation, written as , involving two numbers, the base and the exponent (or power) .
When is a negative integer and is not zero, is naturally defined as
31
EXPONENTS WITH FRACTIONS
We can represent roots by
When the root is negative we have that
32
OPERATIONS WITH EXPONENTS
Assuming that (otherwise we have imaginary numbers), the following statements are true,
33
THE EXPONENTIAL FUNCTION
In general, an exponential function is one of the form , where the base is "" and the exponent is "".
34
THE EXPONENTIAL FUNCTION
However, nowadays the term exponential function is almost exclusively used as a shortcut for the natural exponential function , where is Euler's number, calculated from the infinite series
is one of the numbers in Euler’s identity
35
THE EXPONENTIAL FUNCTION
is the only base for which the slope of the tangent line to the curve at any point on the curve is equal to the -coordinate at .
36
LOGARITHMIC FUNCTIONS
Here is the definition of the logarithm function: if is any real number such that , , and then
and are inverse functions. In other words
and
