• Identifying domain and range
• Function Notation
REVIEW:
n What is a function?

A function is a set of ordered pairs of numbers


(x, y) such that no x –values are repeated.

n What are the domain and range of a function?


The domain is the set of all the values of the
independent variable, the x-coordinate
The range is the set of all the values of the
dependent variable, the y-coordinate.
Identify the domain and range of the
function below.
{ (2, 7), (4, 11), (6, 15), (8, 19)}

n The domain is { 2, 4, 6, 8}

n The range is { 7, 11, 15, 19}


Graphs
The domain of a function is the set of all the
x-coordinates in the functions’ graph

Domain 3 ≤ x ≤ 12
The range of a function is the set of all the y-
coordinates in the functions’ graph

Range 6 ≤ y ≤ 12
What is the domain of this function?
What is the range of this function?

Domain is 0 ≤ x ≤ 4

Sometimes you will be asked to
determine a REASONABLE domain
or range
The average daily high temperature for the
month of May is represented by the function
t = 0.2n + 80
Where n is the date of the month. May has 31
days. What is a reasonable estimate of the
domain?
Answer: 1 ≤ n ≤ 31
What is a reasonable estimate of the range
Answer: See next slide
Our function rule is:
t = 0.2n + 80

Our domain is 1 ≤ n ≤ 31
Our smallest possible n is 1
Our largest possible n is 31

To find the range, substitute 1 into the equation


and solve. Then substitute 31 into the
equation and solve.
Our function rule is:
t = 0.2n + 80
Substitute a 1 Substitute a 31
t = 0.2n + 80
t = 0.2n + 80
t = 0.2(1) + 80
t = 0.2 + 80 t = 0.2(31) + 80
t = 80.2 t = 6.2 + 80
t = 86.2

Reasonable range is 80.2 ≤ t ≤ 86.2


Functional Notation
…is an equation that is a function which
maybe expressed using functional notation.

Function notation replaces the independent variable, y


with either f(x), g(x), or h(x).

f(x) is read as “ ____f _____of_____”x

Does not mean g(x) is read as “ ____g _____


of _____”x
multiplication!

h(x) is read as “ ____h _____


of _____”x
Instead of writing, y = x+3 , we replace the y with f ( x)

f ( x) = x + 3

f of x equals x + 3
is read as “ ___________________________________”

Function
Read as
Notation

f ( x) = x 2 f of x equals x 2

f ( x) = x f of x equals the absolute value of x


f ( x) = x f of x equals the square root of x
f ( x) = 3 + x 2 f of x equals 3 + x 2
For the function f(x) = 2x + 6, the notation f(3)
means that the variable x is replaced with the
value of 3.

f(x) = 2x + 6
f(3) = 2(3) + 6
f(3) = 12
Given f(x) = 3x – 4, evaluate f(4).

f(4) = 8

Given g(x) = 2x – 10, evaluate g(5).

g(5) = 0
Given f(x) = 4x + 8, determine the range given
the domain of { 0, 2, 4 }.

Range = { 8, 16, 24 }
Evaluating Functions
Given f(x) = 4x + 8, find each:
f(2) +3 = (4(2) + 8) + 3
= (8 + 8) + 3
= 16 + 3
= 19

f(a +1) = 4(a + 1) + 8


= 4a + 4 + 8
= 4a + 12

f(-4a) = 4(-4a) + 8
= -16a+ 8
