A collection of data, or a set of ordered pairs is called a _____________________.

** Supplemental Reading 4.2 Function Notation p.178 & 181
A ________________ is a special kind of relation in which each element of the domain is paired with exactly one element of the range.
*What does this mean?
If you have a number that repeats in the ____________ (x-coordinates), it has to have the same range value (y-coordinate).
If it does not have the same range value, it is not a function.
If there is a repeat in a range value:

In the second relation, we had a repeat domain value of -3. Do you notice anything about the two points that have the same domain value of -3?
*We can use something called the ___________________________ test on a graph, to see whether a set of points is a function.
Use your pencil as a vertical line.
If no vertical line intersects a graph in more than one point, the graph represents a __________________.
If some vertical line intersects a graph in two or more points, the graph does _________ represent a function.
Ex. Problems using the vertical line test
Use the vertical line test to determine whether a graph represents a function or simply a relation. Hint: Remember graphs are made up of a gazillion ____________!

When we have a lot of data, we can sometimes come up with a general way to describe the relationship of the information. The way we describe a relationship in math is with an ____________________.
The solution(s) of an equation: The set(s) of ___________________ that make the equation true.
*A graph is the scatter plot of all the points that make the equation true.
Finding a graph without a calculator
Make a T-Chart.
Ex. Make a t-chart with at least 5 points, graph the relation, and decide whether it is a function or not.
1. Many of the equations we work with will have a domain (x-values) that is made up of all real numbers. So when we make a t-chart, we can usually pick any numbers we want and put them in the x-column.

For functions only:
The domain values (usually x-values) are represented in an equation by the _________________ variable.
The range values (usually y-values) are represented in an equation by the _________________ variable. (Because its values depend on the x).
Function notation-
Naming a function
The function depends on ______
Sometimes we say ______ is a function of _______.
We shorten it to __________. How do we say it out loud?
* This does not mean multiplying.
This new symbol takes the place of _____ in the equation of a function.
The equation y = 5x + 7, can be written as _____________________.
We can use this notation when making our t-charts, or finding out range (y-values) for a given x-value.
Ex. 1 f(x) = 5x+7

ACT Warm up:
Systems of quadratic equations
To solve, find the point(s) where the parabolas or lines intersect.
Algebraically
Use the substitution method to solve.

Quadratic inequalities of one variable
To solve means to find all the real numbers that make the inequality true.
How to solve.
Ex. x2 + x > 6
1. First solve the related equation.
2. Plot the solutions to #1 on a number line.
3. Test a value in each interval in the original inequality.
4. Summarize results.
Ex. Solve x2 + x

Quadratic inequalities of two variables.
To solve means to find all the points (x,y) that make the inequality true.
How to solve.
Ex. y > -x2 - 6x – 7
1. Graph the related equation.
2. Choose a test a point inside the parabola. Plug into the original inequality.
3. If the test point “works” shade the region inside the parabola.
4. If the test point does NOT “work” shade the outside of the parabola.
*Your solution is the shaded region!
Ex. Solve. y > x2 – 3x + 2
