1. SET LANGUAGE & NOTATION Domain of 𝑔(𝑥) = Range of 𝑔−1 (𝑥)
A well-defined collection of objects is called a set and Solving functions:
each object is called a member or element of the set o 𝑓(2): substitute 𝑥 = 2 and solve for 𝑓(𝑥)
A set is denoted by a capital letter and is expressed by: o 𝑓𝑔(𝑥): substitute 𝑥 = 𝑔(𝑥)
−1 (𝑥):
o Listing its elements, e.g. 𝑉 = {𝑎, 𝑒, 𝑖, 𝑜, 𝑢} o𝑓 let 𝑦 = 𝑓(𝑥) and make 𝑥 the subject
o A set builder notation Transformation of graphs:
𝑅 set of real numbers o 𝑓(−𝑥): reflection in the 𝑦-axis
𝑅 +
set of positive real numbers o −𝑓(𝑥): reflection in the 𝑥-axis
𝑁 set of natural numbers o 𝑓(𝑥) + 𝑎: translation of 𝑎 units parallel to 𝑦-axis
𝑍 set of integers o 𝑓(𝑥 + 𝑎): translation of – 𝑎 units parallel to 𝑥-axis
+ 1
𝑍 set of positive integers o 𝑓(𝑎𝑥): stretch, scale factor 𝑎 parallel to 𝑥-axis
o e.g. {𝑥: 𝑥 is a prime number and 𝑥 < 30} o 𝑎𝑓(𝑥): stretch, scale factor 𝑎 parallel to 𝑦-axis
For any finite set 𝑃, 𝑛(𝑃) denotes the number of Modulus function:
elements in 𝑃 o Denoted by |𝑓(𝑥)|
A null or empty set is denote by { } or ∅ o Modulus of a number is its absolute value
For any two sets 𝑃 and 𝑄: o Never goes below 𝑥-axis
o 𝑃 = 𝑄 if they have the same elements o Makes negative graph into positive by reflecting
o 𝑃 ⊆ 𝑄 if 𝑥 ∈ 𝑃 ⟹ 𝑥 ∈ 𝑄 negative part into 𝑥-axis
o 𝑃 ∩ 𝑄 = {𝑥: 𝑥 ∈ 𝑃 and 𝑥 ∈ 𝑄} Solving modulus function:
o 𝑃 ∩ 𝑄 = ∅ then 𝑃 and 𝑄 are disjoint sets o Sketch graphs and find points of intersection
o 𝑃 ∪ 𝑄 = {𝑥: 𝑥 ∈ 𝑃 or 𝑥 ∈ 𝑄} o Square the equation and solve quadratic
For any set 𝑃 and universal set 𝜉 Relationship of a function and its inverse:
o 𝑃 ⊆ 𝜉 and 0 ≤ 𝑛(𝑃) ≤ 𝑛(𝜉) o The graph of the inverse of a function is the reflection
o 𝑃′ = {𝑥: 𝑥 ∈ 𝜉 and 𝑥 ∉ 𝑃} of a graph of the function in 𝑦=𝑥
o 𝑃 ∩ 𝑃′ = ∅
o 𝑃 ∪ 𝑃′ = 𝜉 3. QUADRATIC FUNCTIONS
To sketch 𝑦 = 𝑎𝑥 2 + 𝑏𝑥 + 𝑐 𝑎 ≠ 0
2. FUNCTIONS o Use the turning point:
One-to-one functions: each 𝑥 value maps to one distinct Express 𝑦 = 𝑎𝑥 2 + 𝑏𝑥 + 𝑐 as 𝑦 = 𝑎(𝑥 − ℎ)2 + 𝑘 by
𝑦 value completing the square
e.g. 𝑓(𝑥) = 3𝑥 − 1 𝑛 2 𝑛 2
Many-to-one functions: there are some 𝑓(𝑥) values 𝑥 2 + 𝑛𝑥 ⟺ (𝑥 + ) − ( )
2 2
which are generated by more than one 𝑥 value 𝑎(𝑥 + 𝑛)2 + 𝑘
e.g. 𝑓(𝑥) = 𝑥 2 − 2𝑥 + 3 Where the vertex is (−𝑛, 𝑘)
Domain = 𝑥 values Range = 𝑦 values 𝑎 > 0 – u-shaped ∴ minimum point
Notation: 𝑓(𝑥) can also be written as 𝑓: 𝑥 ↦ 𝑎 < 0 – n-shaped ∴ maximum point
To find range: Find the 𝒙-intercept:
o Complete the square o Factorize or use formula
𝑥 2 − 2𝑥 + 3 ⇒ (𝑥 − 1)2 + 2 Type of root by calculating discriminant 𝑏 2 − 4𝑎𝑐
o Work out min/max point o If 𝑏 2 − 4𝑎𝑐 = 0, real and equal roots
Minimum point = (1,2) o If 𝑏 2 − 4𝑎𝑐 > 0, real and distinct roots
∴ all 𝑦 values are greater than or equal to 2. 𝑓(𝑥) ≥ 2 o If 𝑏 2 − 4𝑎𝑐 < 0, no real roots

Basic Counting Principle: to find the number of ways of
performing several tasks in succession, multiply the
number of ways in which each task can be performed:
