Written as an EQUATION: !

= −3% + 1 Written in FUNCTION NOTATION: ((%) = −3% + 1

Function
The !(#) is literally read as the _____________________________ (or EQUATION) of __________
x is −3# + 1.

The +(,) REPLACES the - in the function. The + is


NOT a variable.

WHY DO WE NEED THIS? comparing multiple functions,


other letters besides ! can be used, such as ) and ℎ.

It allows us to clearly discuss the distinct equations when


they are all graphed.

!
((%) = −2% − 1 /(%) = 3% + 4 ℎ(%) = " %

USING FUNCTION NOTATION: Regardless of the change in the LOOK of the equation, function
notation still can be utilized to evaluate equations much like ‘normal’ equations.

Given , = ./ − 0 evaluate when / = 1 Evaluate 2(/) = ./ − 0 given that 2(1).

Function Notation can also be used to combine equations and find composite solutions.

Use the function !(#) = 4# and )(#) = # % − 1 to find the value of the expression !(1) + )(2).
!(#) = 4# )(#) = # % − 1
1. Identify what values of #

each of the functions. f 1 g 2

2. Plug in the # values and


evaluate each function.
