using domain, range and linear function? The activities in this material will help you

in computations, the student manager prepared a table to which she can refer when
receiving payments. A part of the table is shown below.
Questions:
2. Do you see the pattern? State the rule that describes the pattern.

What is It
This module focuses on domain, range and linear function. How did you find
Activity 2? Perhaps, the first problem is much easier for you.
Domain and Range
6
Let X and Y be two nonempty sets of real numbers. A function from X into Y
is a rule or a correspondence that associates with each element of X a unique
element of Y.
Domain is the set of all the first coordinates of the ordered pairs in a
function or the x values.
Range is the set of all the second coordinates of the ordered pairs in a
function or the y values.
Examples:
1. Determine the domain and range in the given set of ordered pairs of an
equation.
Domain: {-1, 0, 2, 3}
Range: {-1, 0, 2, 3}
Domain: {-2, 0, 2, 5}
Range: {5}

Domain: {x ≤ 0} since 0 is the highest x
value and the arrow indicates the line
continues to the left. It includes zero
since the dot is solid.
In symbols,
𝐷𝑓 = {x │x € R}, read as: “the domain of the function f is the set of all x such
that x is an element of the set of real numbers,” and
𝑅𝑓 = {y │y € R}, read as: “the range of the function f is the set of all y such
that y is an element of the set of real numbers.”
x = -2
Range: No matter how large or small x becomes, f(x) will never be equal to
2.
If we try to solve the equation for 2, this will happen:
Substitution
0=4
The attempt to solve ends with a false statement, 0 cannot be equal to
4. The equation has no solution. There is no value of x for which , so
this proves that the range is restricted.
When can a function be considered as a linear function? For you to find out
the answer to this question, let us continue learning another lesson which is about
linear function.
Linear Function
A linear function is a function whose graph is a straight line. It is in the form of f(x)
= mx + b or y = mx + b where:
10
Note, m and b can be equal to zero. If m = 0, the resulting function f(x) = b is a special
type of function called the constant function. Its graph is a horizontal line.
𝒇(𝒙) = 𝟓𝒙 − 𝟐 𝟐𝒙 − 𝒚 = −𝟒 𝒚 = −𝟑𝒙 + 𝟖 𝟐𝒙 − 𝟒𝒚 + 𝟖 = 𝟎
Each of these forms can be written in another form. For this purpose, the function
form y = mx + b can be used synonymously as f(x) = mx + b, which suggests that y =
f(x).
How can you tell if a function is linear based on domain, range, table of values, and
graph? Let us try to find out by learning linear function deeper.
Examples:
1. Is 𝑓(𝑥) = −5𝑥 + 8 a linear function? If yes, determine the slope m and the y-
intercept b.
Solution:
Yes, it is a linear function since the highest exponent (degree) of x is
one and it is written in the form 𝑓(𝑥) = 𝑚𝑥 + 𝑏. The slope m is -5 while
the y-intercept b is 8.
Solution:
Yes, it is a linear function because it has a degree one. Since 𝑦 = −𝑥 can
be written as 𝑦 = −𝟏𝒙 + 𝟎, its slope is -1 and y-intercept is 0.
Solution:
It is not a linear function because its degree (the highest exponent of x)
is 2, not 1.
Table of Values
The function, given its table of values, is linear if the differences of the
xcoordinates are equal and the differences of the y-coordinates are equal. However,
the function is not linear if the differences on the x-coordinates are equal and the
differences on y-coordinates are not equal.

Examples:

➔ The differences are equal.

➔ The differences are equal.
2.

f(x) or y 4 1 0 1 4
Graph
The graph of a linear function whose domain and range of a linear function is the
set of real numbers is a straight line.
Note that graphing a linear function is exactly the same as graphing linear
equation in two variables which you have already learned last quarter.
Examples:
12
The linear function is widely used in real-life situations and in many fields,
such as mathematics, economics, science, and technology.
We can express this situation as a linear function 𝒚 = 𝟏𝟎𝒙 + 𝟓𝟎. The amount
the working student receives in a day varies depending on the number of mobile
phones he can sell.
Let us make a table of values showing the different amounts he can receive
for the given number of palm trees he can sell.
Let us graph the given ordered pairs from the table of values below.
a. The degree is 1.
b. The slope is 10 and the y –
intercept is 50.
c. The differences of the x- and
y – coordinates are equal.
d. The graph is a straight line.
e. The domain and ranges are
all set of real numbers.
