The word Function was first used by Domain (X) = all possible inputs for the Gottfried Wilhelm Leibniz in 1694 as a function f term to denote any quantity connected with a curve, such as the coordinates of Range (subset of Y) = all possible outputs from a point on a curve or the slope of a the function f based on the inputs from the curve. domain X.

Although f is often used as a convenient function name and x as the independent variablem you can use other symbols. For instance, the following equations all define the same function. Difference Quotient 2 A. 𝑓(𝑥) = 𝑥 − 4𝑥 + 7 2 I. The difference quotient is a fundamental B. 𝑓(𝑡) = 𝑡 − 4𝑡 + 7 concept in calculus used to approximate 2 C. 𝑔(𝑔) = 𝑠 − 4𝑠 + 7 the derivative of a function. It measures the average rate of change o the function over a specific interval. Here’s a Finding the Domain and Range of Function breakdown of what the difference quotient is and how it works. I. The domain of the function A. The difference quotient for a 𝑓(𝑥) = 𝑥 − 1 function 𝑓(𝑥) is given by II.

The domain of a function can be described explicitly, or it may be Piecewise Function described implicitly by an equation used to define the function. I. A piecewise function is a function that is II. The implied domain is the set of all real defined by different expressions or numbers for which the equation is formulas for different intervals of its defined, whereas an explicitly defined domain. Instead of having a single domain is one that is given along with formula that applies to all input values, a the function. piecewise function multiple “pieces,” 1 A. 𝑓(𝑥) = 2 ,4 ≤ 𝑥 ≤ 5 each valid over a specific range of input 𝑥 −4 Has an explicitly defined domain given by values. {𝑥: 4 ≤ 𝑥 ≤ 5}. On the other hand, the function given by General Form: 1 A piecewise function is written as: B. 𝑔(𝑥) = 2 𝑥 −4 Has an implied domain that is the set {𝑥: 𝑥 ≠± 2} Vertical Line Test I. The vertical line test is a simple method used to determine whether a graph represents a function. It helps to visually check if a relation between x - values is a function. ➔ If a vertical line drawn anywhere on the graph intersects the graph at no more than one point, then the graph represents a function. ➔ If any vertical line intersects the graph at more than one point, the graph does not represent a function Graph of a Function I. The graph of the function 𝑓 = 𝑓(𝑥) consists of all points (𝑥, 𝑓(𝑥)), where x is in the domain of f. In figure P.25, note that A. X = the directed distance from Eight Basic Functions the y - axis B. f(x) = the directed distance from the x - axis Basic Types Of Transformations (𝑐 > 0) Transformation of Functions I. Function Transformations involve altering the graph of a function in Classification and Combinations of Functions specific ways to obtain a new graph. These changes affect the function’s position, shape, or orientation on the coordinate plane. Types of Transformations: Vertical Shifts: Moving the graph up or down. Horizontal Shifts: Moving the graph left or right. Reflections: Flipping the graph over a specific axis. Stretches and Compressions: Changing the size of the graph either horizontally or vertically.

Zeros Function Horizontal Line Test I. If a horizontal line scanning from top to bottom only passes through the graph of a function 𝑦 = 𝑓(𝑥) in at most one place, then we say that the graph satisfies the horizontal line test and that the function f is one-one. This means that each potential output on the y-axis can correspond to at most one input on the x-axis. Composite Function I. Combining two functions where the output of one function becomes the input for the other. For functions f and g, the composition is denoted as 𝑓 ◦ 𝑔, defined by (𝑓 ◦ 𝑔)(𝑥) = 𝑓(𝑔(𝑥)). Function Subtraction I. Substracting one function from another. For function f and g, the difference is II. The function given by denoted as: (𝑓 ◦ 𝑔)(𝑥) = 𝑓(𝑔(𝑥)) is called the A. (𝑓 − 𝑔)(𝑥) = 𝑓(𝑥) − 𝑔(𝑥) composite of f with g. The domain of 𝑓 ◦ 𝑔 is the set of all x in the domain of g such that 𝑔(𝑥) is in the domain of f. Function Multiplication I. Multiplying two functions. For functions f and g, the product is denoted as: A. (𝑓 − 𝑔)(𝑥) = 𝑓(𝑥) · 𝑔(𝑥) Function Addition I. Adding two functions together. For functions f and g, the sum is denoted as: A. (𝑓 + 𝑔)(𝑥) = 𝑓(𝑥) + 𝑔(𝑥) Function Division I. Dividing one function by another. For functions f and g, the quotient is denoted as: A.

The Limit Process (An Intuitive f defined at all numbers x near c but not Introduction) necessarily at c itself. In any case, A. We could begin by saying that whether or not f is defined at c and, if limits are important in calculus, so, how is totally irrelevant. but that would be a major II. Now let L be some real number. WE say understatement. Without limits, that the limit of f(x) as x tends to c is L calculus would not exist. Every and write single notion of calculus is a A. lim 𝑓(𝑥) = 𝐿 limit in one sense or another. 𝑥→𝑐 Provided that (roughly speaking) B. As x approaches c, f(x) approaches L Or (somewhat more precisely) provided that A. f(x) is close to L for all 𝑥 ≠ 𝑐 which are close to c. Definition of Limit I. If f(x) becomes arbitrarily close to a single number L as x approaches c from either side, then the limit of f(x) as x approaches c is L, written as A. lim 𝑓(𝑥) = 𝐿 𝑥→𝑐 II. At first glance, this definition looks fairly technical. Even so, it is informal because exact meanings have not yet been given to the two phrases A. “𝑓(𝑥) 𝑏𝑒𝑐𝑜𝑚𝑒𝑠 𝑎𝑟𝑏𝑖𝑡𝑟𝑎𝑟𝑖𝑙𝑦 𝑐𝑙𝑜𝑠𝑒 𝑡 𝐿" And B.
