Many-to-one correspondence

One-to-many correspondence

One-to-one correspondence (correct)

What does a function machine represent regarding input and output variables?

How is the tricycle fare represented for distances greater than 2 kilometers in a piecewise function?

F(d) = 10 + 8d + 2 for d > 2

F(d) = 10 + 8(d - 2) for d > 2 (correct)

Study Notes

Classification of Functions

Functions can be classified into three types: one-to-one correspondence, one-to-many correspondence, and many-to-one correspondence.
In a function machine, the input represents the independent variable while the output is the dependent variable.

Real-Life Function Representations

Total salary (S) for a person earning ₱750.00 per day can be expressed as:
S(n) = 750n, where n is the number of days worked.
Rental fee (R) for a computer shop charging ₱15.00 per hour can be represented as:
R(t) = 15t, where t is the number of hours rented.
For a tricycle ride, the fare (F) can be expressed as a piecewise function:
F(d) = { 10, if d ≤ 2
10 + 8(d - 2), if d > 2 }
Here, d represents the distance in kilometers.

Evaluating Functions

Functions can be evaluated by substituting the variable with specific values from the domain.
Example evaluation: Determine Kevin's savings for a specific number of days.

Understanding Relations and Functions

A relation is a set of ordered pairs, and the domain consists of the first elements while the range consists of the second elements.
For a relation to be classified as a function, each domain element must correspond to exactly one range element.
Examples of ordered pairs:
- Relation A = {(1,2), (2,3), (3,4), (4,5)} is a function.
- Relation B = {(3,3), (4,4), (5,5), (6,6)} is also a function.
- Relation C = {(1,0), (0,1), (-1,0), (0,-1)} is not a function because 0 corresponds to two different outputs.
- Relation D = {(a,b), (b,c), (c,d), (a,d)} is not a function due to repeated elements in the domain.

Graphical Representation and the Vertical Line Test

A function can be illustrated using graphs in the Cartesian plane.
The vertical line test states that a graph represents a function if any vertical line intersects it at exactly one point.
Graph Examples:
- Graphs A and C pass the vertical line test, indicating they are functions.
- Graphs B and D fail the vertical line test, hence are not functions.

Multiple Representations of Functions

Functions can be represented through various mediums: words, tables, mappings, equations, and graphs.
Mathematical functions express a relationship where the output (y) depends on the input (x). For example, a function that adds three to the input can be denoted as y = x + 3.

Various Function Activities and Evaluations

Activities include evaluating algebraic expressions and understanding real-life scenarios as functions.
It is essential to practice evaluating functions and recognizing their applications in everyday situations.
