Unit 1: Functions
Lesson 1: Functions, Domain, Range

Note 1: What is a function?

A relation in which each x -value is linked to only one y -value. The Vertical Line Test is used to test whether a graph
is a function. The Vertical Line Test states that if a vertical line intersects the graph of a relation more than once, then
the relation is not a function.

Note 2: Classifying Relations

o one-to-one relation: each x-value is linked to a different y-value (function? Yes / No)

o many-to-one relation: more than one x-value is linked to a single y-value (function? Yes / No)

o one-to-many relation: one x-value is linked to more than one y-value (function? Yes / No)

Example
Determine whether each of the following relations are functions.
a) (1, 5), (-2, 3), (4, 3), (1, 6)

b) c)
Note 3: Evaluating Functions
Example
If f ( x )=5−x−x 2, find:

a. f (5 ) b. f (−4 )

c. f (−x ) d. f ( x +2 )

Note 4: Function Interval Notation

Note 5: Domain and Range

Domain: The set of x values in a relation.

Range: The set of y values in a relation.

Example
Find the domain and range of the following.

a. b.

c. d.
