Study Notes

Finding the Domain of a Function

For the function ( y = \frac{2x+1}{x-1} ), the domain excludes ( x = 1 ) since the denominator cannot be zero. Domain: {x | x ∈ R, x ≠ 1}
The function ( y = |x| + 1 ) has a domain of all real numbers: {x | x ∈ R}
For the linear equation ( 2x - y = 5 ), it can be rewritten as ( y = 2x - 5 ) with a domain of {x | x ∈ R}
The quadratic function ( y = x^2 - 9 ) also has a domain of all real numbers: {x | x ∈ R}
For ( x^2 + y - 4 = 0 ), solved as ( y = 4 - x^2 ), the domain remains all real numbers: {x | x ∈ R}
For ( 3y + xy = 2x + 1 ), rearranging gives ( y = \frac{2x + 1}{3 + x} ). The domain excludes ( x = -3 ): {x | x ∈ R, x ≠ -3}

Understanding Relations & Functions

A relation is a rule connecting inputs (domain) with outputs (range).
The domain consists of all possible input values, while the range includes all possible output values.
An ordered pair represents a combination of an input and its corresponding output.
A set is a collection of distinct objects sharing a characteristic.
A function is a specific type of relation where each input corresponds to exactly one output.

Graphical Representation

The Vertical Line Test determines if a relation is a function; if a vertical line intersects the graph in more than one point, it is not a function.
Graph examples show intersections: circles are not functions, but lines are.

Evaluation of Functions

Evaluating a function means substituting a value from its domain into the function.
Given ( f(x) = 2x + 1 ) and evaluating at ( x = 1.5 ) yields ( f(1.5) = 4 ).
For ( g(x) = x^2 - 2x + 2 ), evaluating at ( x = 1.5 ) gives ( g(1.5) = 1.75 ).
Evaluating piecewise functions requires using the appropriate case based on the input value.

Operations on Functions

Addition/Subtraction:
- For functions ( f(x) = 3x - 5 ) and ( g(x) = 4x + 6), results in ( (f+g)(x) = 7x - 1 ).
Multiplication/Division:
- ( (f * g)(x) = f(x) * g(x) ) and ( (f / g)(x) = f(x) / g(x) ) where ( g(x) ≠ 0 ).

Additional Examples of Piecewise Functions

For ( f(x) = { 3x - 8 \text{ if } x ≥ 2; 4x + 5 \text{ if } x < 2 } ):
- Evaluating at different inputs (e.g. ( f(-2) ), ( f(2) ), ( f(5) )) leads to specific outputs.
Evaluating piecewise functions requires careful consideration of the defined intervals to find outputs.

Rules for Evaluating Domains

A function's domain is limited by restrictions, such as avoiding negatives under square roots and ensuring denominators are not zero.
