RELATION
 the domain of a relation is the set of first coordinates

VERTICAL LINE TEST
Function or not a function
 it is a set of ordered pairs
 the range of a relation is the set of second coordinates.
In an ordered pair, the x-coordinate tells you the number of
units left or right and y-coordinate tells you the number of
units up or down.
Each letter (x-coordinate) corresponds to exactly one number (y-
coordinate). This is a special kind of relation
It is a relation in which each element of the domain corresponds to
exactly one element of the range.

3. Graph
1. Each element in domain X must be matched with exactly one
element in the range Y.
2. Some elements in Y may not be matched with any element in X.
3. Two or more elements in X may be matched with the same
element in Y
1. Each element in domain X must be matched with exactly one
element in the range Y.
2. Some elements in Y may not be matched with any element in
X.
3. Two or more elements in X may be matched with the same
element in Y
it determines whether a graph of relation is a function or not
this can be done by passing or drawing a vertical line through
the graph of its ordered pair
A relation is a function if the vertical line intersects or passes
through its graph in only one point
PIECEWISE FUNCTION It is also known as a compound function. It is a function defined
by multiple subfunctions, where each subfunction applies to a
certain interval of the main function's domain

It is defined by two equations. One gives the value of f(x) when

x is less than or equal to 1, and the other equation gives the value
of f(x) when x is greater than 1

HORIZONTAL LINE TEST A function is one-to-one if the horizontal line intersects or

passes through its graph in only one point
One to One function or not

LAWS OF EXPONENTS
Use x=-3 to x=3 to construct the table of values and substitute
each value of x to the given function f(x) to get the
corresponding value of y, then graph.
If a+x=b and x=c, then a+c=b.
A function if only f(-x)=f(x) for all x in the domain of f
The right-hand side of the equation of the even function does not
change even if x is replaced with -x
A function if and only if f(-x)=-f(x), for all x in the domain of f
A polynomial is defined as an expression which is composed of
terms, variables, constants, and exponents. 4x2+3y-10
It is an expression that has one term b. Binomial- It is an expression
that has two terms c. Trinomial-It is an expression that has three
terms
To add polynomials, write the sum and simplify by combining like
terms.
To subtract an expression from another expression, add its
negative.

Product Rule for Exponents xmoxn=xm+n

To multiply powers having the same base, keep the base and add
the exponents.
Power Rule for Exponents (xm)n=xmn

To find the power of a power of a base, keep the base and multiply
the exponents.
Power of a Product Rule (xy)n=x"yn

To find the power of a product, find the power of each factor and
then multiply the resulting powers.

4. COMPOSITION OF FUNCTIONS

The composition of the function f with g is denoted by fog and is (fog)(x)=f(g(x))

defined by the equation
The domain of the composition function fog is the set of all x such 1. x is in the domain of g; and 2. g(x) is in the domain of f.
