3.1 Functions (2)

Chapter 3 focuses on graphing linear functions, specifically defining and identifying functions and their domains and ranges. It explains that a function pairs each input with exactly one output and introduces the vertical line test (VLT) for graphical representation. Additionally, it covers how to determine the domain and range of a function through ordered pairs and graphical analysis.

Graphing Linear Functions

Functions
What is a function?

1. Students will be able to determine whether relations are


functions.
2. Students will be able to find the domain and range of a
function.
1. Students will be able to determine whether relations are functions.

• A relation pairs inputs with outputs.


• When a relation is given as ordered pairs, the x-coordinates are the
inputs and the y-coordinates are outputs.
• A relation that pairs each input with exactly one output is a function.

1. Students will be able to determine whether relations are functions.
• We can also use the vertical line test (VLT) to determine if the
graph of a relation is a function.

• A graph represents a function when no vertical line passes through


more than one point on the graph

2. Students will be able to find the domain and range of a function.
Domain: is the set of all possible input values (x-values)
Range: is the set of all possible output values (y-values)
Inputs

( 3,  2),( 1,0),(1, 2),(3, 4)


Outputs

Write the ordered pairs. The domain is -3, -1, 1 and 3.


Identify the inputs and outputs. The range is -2, 0, 2 and 4.
