Lecture 1: FUNCTIONS
Common
methods for representing functions are:
1. Numerically by tables
2. Geometrically by graphs
3. Algebraically by formulas
Examples:
b)
a)
y=x2

INDEPENDENT AND DEPENDENT VARIABLES
For a given input x, the output of a function f is called the value of f at x or the image of x under f.
Sometimes we will want to denote the output by a single letter, say y, and write
y=f(x)
x is called the independent variable (or argument) of f
y is called the dependent variable of f
For now we will only consider functions in which the independent and dependent variables
are real numbers, in which case we say that f is a real-valued function of a real variable.
Example 2 The equation
!
!
!
has the form in which the function f is given by the formula
!
!
!
For each input x, the corresponding output y is obtained by substituting x in this formula. For example,
!
!
!
!
GRAPHS OF FUNCTIONS
graph of f in the xy-plane is defined to be the graph of the equation y=f(x), i.e. plot points (x, f(x))
Note: No points with x<0
!
!
THE ABSOLUTE VALUE FUNCTION
set of all allowable inputs (x-values) is called the domain of f
!
set of outputs (y-values) that result when x varies over the domain is
called the range of f
Example:
V=(30-2x)(16-2x)x
1.1.5 DEFINITION. If a real-valued function of a real variable is defined by a formula, and if
no domain is stated explicitly, then it is to be understood that the domain consists of all real
numbers for which the formula yields a real value. This is called the natural domain of the
function.
