Functions and Relations: Goal: Decide Whether A Relation Is A Function and Use Function Notation

This document discusses functions and relations. It defines a relation as any set of ordered pairs and a function as a relation where each input has exactly one output. It provides examples of relations that are and are not functions. It introduces function notation and the vertical line test to determine if a relation is a function. It also shows how to evaluate functions and graph linear functions.
