Introduction to Function Notation in Cost Calculations for Textbooks

This lesson covers the basics of function notation through a practical example involving textbook costs. The math department is considering purchasing new textbooks priced at $94 each. We define the total cost, C, as a function of the number of books ordered, n, represented by the equation C(n) = 94n. For instance, ordering 10 books results in a total cost of C(10) = $940. Additionally, we evaluate various examples involving functions, including graph interpretation and domain and range determination, to deepen understanding of function notation.

  1. 1.3 Working with Function Notation

  2. The math department has looked into purchasing new textbooks for this course. The best deal is at a cost of $94 per textbook. • The total cost of the books, C, depends on the number of books that are ordered, n. Since the cost is a function that depends on the number of books ordered we should write it’s equation using function notation. • C(n) = 94n

  3. The cost of ordering 10 new books would be $940. We can show this mathematically by replacing the n in the equation with 10 : C(n) = 94n C(10) = 94(10) C(10) = 940

  4. Example #1: Given the function Evaluate: a) b)

  5. c)

  6. Example #2: Given the following graph of the function y=g(x) Evaluate: • f(-1) • f(0) – f(2) • For what value(s) of x does f(x)=0? • State the Domain and Range.
