WEEK 1 - Introduction of Functions

The document discusses functions and relations. It defines a relation as a set of ordered pairs where the domain is the set of first coordinates and the range is the set of second coordinates. It defines a function as a special type of relation where each element of the domain corresponds to exactly one element of the range. It provides examples of relations and functions. It also introduces key function terminology like domain, range, independent variable, and dependent variable.

RELATIONS FUNCTIONS

A relation is a set A function is a


of ordered pairs. relation in which
The domain of a each element of

The range is the set exactly one
of second element of the
coordinates. range.
RELATIONS
A relation is a set of ordered pairs. The
domain of a relation is the set of first
coordinates. The range is the set of second
coordinates.

Example of Relations
1. {(1, 4), (2, 5), (3, 6), (4, 8)}
2. {(4, 2), (4, -2), (9, 3), (9,3)}
3. {(1, a), (1, b), (1, c), (1,d)}
FUNCTIONS
A function is a relation in which each
element of the domain corresponds to
exactly one element of the range.

Examples of Functions
1. {(1, 4), (2, 5), (3, 6), (4, 8)}
2. {(2, 1), (3, 1), (4, 1), (5,1)}
DOMAIN AND RANGE
If f is a function from x to y, we define
the domain of the function f as the set
of all possible values of x and the range
as the set of all possible values of y.
Examples of Functions
1. {(1, 4), (2, 5), (3, 6), (4, 8)}
2. {(2, 1), (3, 1), (4, 1), (5,1)}
• Variable x is called independent
variable
• Variable y is called dependent
variable (one to be computed based
on the value of x)
• For convenience, we use f(x) instead
of y.
• The ordered pair in new notation
becomes:
• (x, y) = (x, f(x))
FUNCTION RULE:
There is no common
element existing on the
first coordinate.
REMEMBER:

ALL FUNCTIONS ARE


RELATION, BUT NOT
ALL RELATIONS ARE
FUNCTIONS.
