Functions and Their Graphs
DEFINITION
A function ƒ from a set D to a set Y is a rule that assigns a unique value ƒ(x) in Y to each x in D.

Dependent variable Independent variable

Example
1- The temperature at which water boils depends on the elevation above sea level. 𝒚 = 𝒙𝟐
2- The area of a circle depends on the radius of the circle 𝑨 = 𝝅𝒓𝟐 ( 𝒓 = 𝒓𝒂𝒅𝒖𝒊𝒔)

Example

Practical Problem
A fence is to be built against a brick wall to form a rectangular lot, as shown in Figure 12. Only three sides of the
fence need to be built, because the wall forms the fourth side. The contractor will use 200 m of fencing. Let the
length of the wall be l and the width w, as shown in Figure 12.
(a) Find the area of the lot as a function of the length l.
(b) Find the domain of the function in part (a).

Continuity

Definition A function ƒ is continuous at x = c if the following three conditions are satisfied:


1. 𝑓(𝑐) is defined,

2. lim 𝑓 𝑥 exists, and


𝑥→𝑐

3. lim 𝑓 𝑥 = 𝑓 𝑐 .
𝑥→𝑐
If ƒ is not continuous at c, it is discontinuous there.
Example 7 Determine if each function is continuous at the indicated x-value.

𝒇 𝒙 at x = 3
