Study Notes
Chapter 3: Functions
- Everyday life involves relationships between sets. Examples include license plates to automobiles and circumference to circles.
- Relationships between sets need mathematical precision.
- Key skills students will gain are understanding relations and functions, determining domain and range of relations and functions, finding inverses of relations, defining and performing operations on polynomial and rational functions, applying theorems to find polynomial function zeros, sketching graphs of various functions, and understanding and applying properties of various types of real-valued functions.
Section 3.1: Review of Relations and Functions
- Cartesian product of two sets A and B (A x B) is the set of all ordered pairs (a,b) where a ∈ A and b ∈ B.
- Ordered pair (a,b) is equal to ordered pair (c,d) if and only if a=c and b=d.
- A relation from set A to set B is any subset of A x B.
- a is R-related to b (written aRb) if (a,b) ∈ R.
- The domain of R is the set of all first coordinates of the ordered pairs in R, and the range of R is the set of all second coordinates.
- If R is a relation from A to itself, then R is a relation on A.
- A function is a relation in which each element of the domain corresponds to exactly one element of the range.
- For f : A → B to be a function, Dom(f) = A and each a ∈ A must map to at most one element in B.
- A function is a correspondence that assigns to each element of a set A exactly one element of a set B. For example, if f is a function from a set A to a set B, and (a,b) ∈ f, then each value of a must have only one corresponding value of b.
- A relation f from A into B is called a function from A into B iff Dom(f) = A, and no element of A is mapped by f to more than one element of B.
- If (x, y) ∈ f, then y is called the image of x under f and x is called the pre-image of y under f.
- The input values form the domain, and output values form the range of a function.
