Lesson 4.8: Function & Relations Definition Relation: Any set of ordered pairs Function: A rule that establishes a relationship between 2 quantities, the input and the output. For every x there is exactly one y Domain: x values Input: x values Range: y values Output: y values Set Notation {1,2,3} Only write the number once, even if it repeats
Lesson 4.8: Determining if the relation is a function To determine if a given relation is a function, we use the vertical line test. If the vertical line intersects the relation at one point as it moves across the graph, then that graph is a function. If the vertical line intersects the relation at more than one point as it moves across the graph, then that graph is NOT a function.
y x Lesson 4.8: Determining if the relation is a function- Vertical Line Test Run a vertical line across the page from left to right Since the line only touched once, there is only one x value for every y, it is a function.
y x Lesson 4.8: Determining if the relation is a function- Vertical Line Test Run a vertical line across the page from left to right Since the line touched more than once, there is more than one x value for every y, it is a function.
