Comprehensive Review of Relations, Functions, and Linear Equations
This review covers fundamental concepts in relations and intervals, including set-builder and interval notation. It delves into defining relations, domains, and ranges, as well as identifying functions through various representations. Linear functions are analyzed through general forms, slope calculations, and intercepts. The review also addresses linear equations, inequalities, and their graphical solutions. Basic functions and their symmetry properties are examined, alongside transformations, providing a holistic understanding of these key algebraic concepts.

1. Relations and Intervals • Set-Builder Notation: {x | x>2} • Interval Notation: (2, ∞) • Relation: a set of ordered pairs • Domain and Range: input and output Determine domains and ranges from graphs. • Function: one to one relation Independent variable, dependent variable, vertical line test
Exercise • Which of the following representations may describe a function? A. A set of ordered pairs B. An equation C. A graph D. All of these
1. Linear Functions • General form: f(x) = ax + b • Zero of a function: f(x) = 0, x is the zero of the function • X-intercept: zero of a function • Y-intercept: value of y when x = 0 • Constant function: y = a • Domain, Range of a linear function
1. Linear Function • Slope: (y2-y1)/(x2-x1), rate of change • Geometric orientation based on slope • Slope of a vertical line: undefined • Slope-Intercept form: f(x) = mx+b • Point-slope form: y-y1 = m(x – x1) • Standard form: Ax + By = C, A ≠ 0
2. Linear Function • Two parallel lines: equal slopes • Perpendicular lines: m1×m2 = -1 • Linear Regression

3. Linear Equation and Inequalities • Addition and Multiplication Properties of Equality • Graphical approaches to solving linear equations: Intersection • X-intercept method: f(x) = g(x) , find the zero of F(x) = f(x)-g(x)
3. Linear Equation and Inequalities • Addition and multiplication properties of inequality • Graph approach: f(x) > g(x) • X-intercept method of solution of a linear inequality: F(x) >0, x such that F is above the x-axis • Three party Inequalities

4. Basic Function and Symmetry • Basic Functions and their domain & range ,get to know their corresponding graphs • Symmetry with respect to the y –axis: f(x) = f(-x), even function • Symmetry with respect to the x-axis: not a function, if (a,b) is on the graph, then (a, -b) is also on the graph • Symmetry with respect to the origin: f(x) = -f(-x), odd function
