RELATIONS

One-to-one – each element in the domain has only one output in the range
Many-to-one – many elements in the domain has one output in the range
One-to-many – one element in the domain corresponds to multiple elements in the range
Many-to-many – some elements in the domain correspond to multiple elements in the range, some
elements in the range correspond to multiple elements in the domain

HOW TO IDENTIFY FUNCTIONS:

Function – only gives one y-output for one x-input
ex. x = 3 → y = 1
Not a Function – gives multiple y-outputs for one x-input
ex. x = 3 → y = 2, 4, 6, 8

Unique x-value – to determine if a given set is a function, we can check if the x-value doesn’t repeat
twice in the same set.
ex. {(2, 5), (-1, 2), (3, 2)} no repeating x-values thus it is a function.
ex. {(2, 5), (3, 5), (2, 5)} repeating x-values thus it is not a function

HOW TO DETERMINE FUNCTION RULE FROM AN ORDERED SET

ex. {(1, 6), (2, 9), (3, 12), (4, 15)}

Find how the x-inputs and y-outputs relate.

ans. f(x) = 3x + 3

LINEAR FUNCTIONS

Linear Functions – functions when graphed form a straight line; a function that is defined by y = mx + b
where m and b are real numbers

STATEMENTS

Conditional – If p, then q
ex. If birds can fly, then they have wings.
Converse – If q, then p
ex. If birds have wings, then they can fly
Inverse – if not p, then not q
ex. If birds don’t have wings, then they won’t fly
Contrapositive – If not q, then not p
ex. If birds won’t fly, then they don’t have wings
