This resource covers key concepts of functions, including identifying functions through tables and graphs. It explains how to determine if equations like y = x² or x = |y| are functions, using the Vertical Line Test for graphs. Additionally, it discusses range and domain, including real numbers and restrictions like denominators and square roots. Explore the domain and range of specific equations, and learn valuable skills through example problems and assignments. This guide is essential for mastering foundational function concepts in mathematics.

To determine if an equation is a function… Create a (x, y) table
Is y = x² a function? Is x = y2 a function? No, because x = 9 is equal to both 3 and –3.
YES Is y = |x| a function? Is x = |y| a function? No, because x = 7 is equal to both 7 and –7.
To determine if a graph is a function… Perform the Vertical Line Test
Is this a graph of a function? Vertical Line Test
Domain of a Function • X values have to make the value a real number • Watch for 0 in the denominator • Watch for – under the square root (set radicand )
Find the domain of Domain is {x | x 4}
Find the domain of Domain is {x | x -5}
Find the domain of Domain is all real numbers
Find the domain of Domain is {x | x 4}
Find the domain of Domain is {x | x 7}
Graph and State Domain and Range • Domain is horizontal coverage • Range is vertical coverage
Find the domain of f(x) = 2x + 1 Domain is all real numbers
Find the range of f(x) = 2x + 1 Range is all real numbers
Find the range of Range is { y | y 0 }
Find the range of Range is { y | y -1 }
