2. Simplify: -3(5x - 3) -2(6x - 6)
4. Solve for b: A = ½b • h
3. Find the length & width:
1. - -3(8) -2 + -(4)
2x + 10
x P = 68
Vocabulary:1. Discreet Data: Data that has a limited number of values, with space between each value. Usually whole numbers.2. Continuous Data: Data with values that vary continuously over the graph. Data that is unbroken by space between values.
Examples:1. The number of suitcases lost by an airline:
2. The growth of corn plants:
3. The number of ears of corn harvested.
Mapping to Determine a Function
Create a mapping of the following relation and state whether or not it is a function.
{(-1,2) ; (1, 2) ; (5, 3) ; (6, 8)}
Notice that even though there are two 2’s in the range, you only list the 2 once.

This relation is a function because each x-value maps to only one y-value. It is still a function if two x-values go to the same y-value.

Graphing from an EquationGraph the line y = 2x + 3
The easiest way is to create a table, use numbers such as -2, -1, 0, 1, and 2 for x. Then solve for y and plot the points

Function RulesThe equation that represents a function is called a function rule.
A function rule is written with two variables, x and y.
When you are given a function rule, you can evaluate the function at a given domain value to find the corresponding range value.
……….
How to Evaluate a Function RuleTo evaluate a function rule, substitute the value in for x and solve for y.
Examples: Evaluate the given function rules for x = 2
y = x + 5 y = 2x -1 y = -x + 2
y =(2)+ 5
y= 7
y = 2(2)-1
= 4 – 1
y= 3
y = -(2)+2
= -2 + 2
y= 0
……….
Evaluating for a Given DomainYou can also be asked to find the range values for a given
domain.
This is the same as before, but now you’re evaluating the same function rule for more than one number.
The values that you are substituting are x values, so they are a part of the domain.
The values you are generating are y-values, so they are a part of the range.
……….
Find the range values of the function for the given domain.
y = 5x - 7 ; {-3, -2, 4}
y = 5x -7 y = 5x -7 y = 5x - 7 y = 5(-3) - 7 y= 5(-2) -7 y = 5(4) - 7 y = -15 - 7 y= -10 - 7 y= 20 - 7 y= -22 y= -17 y= 13
The range values for the given domain are: { -22, -17, 13}
……….
Function Notation: f(x)..g(x)..h(x)Functions that can be written as equations can be written in function notation. The variable y and the term f(x) represent the dependent variable. It is simply a way to show that the y variable is a function of, or depends on x. It is read "f at x"Since x can be any number, the f(x) is the output, (the dependent variable), when a number is substituted for x.
Practice
1. Find the range values of the function
for the given domain.
f(x) = 3x + 1 ; {-4, 0, 2}
2. Find the range values of the function
for the given domain.
f(x) = -2x + 3 ; {-5, -2, 6}
Steps
1. Sub in each domain value in one @ a time.
2. Solve for y in each
3. List y values in braces.

Complete 3-2;Lessons 4-3 to 4-6 all
PracticeComplete the following questions:
1. Identify the domain and range of the following relations: a. {(-4,-1) ; (-2, 2) ; (3, 1) ; (4, 2)}b. {(0,-6) ; (1, 2) ; (7, -4) ; (1, 4)}

a. {(-3,-3) ; (0, 6) ; (3, -3)}b. {(0,6) ; (3, 3) ; (0, 0)}
3. Use a mapping to see if the following relations are functions: a. {(-4,-1) ; (-2, 2) ; (3, 1) ; (4, 2)}
b. {(0,-6) ; (1, 2) ; (7, -4) ; (1, 4)}

Examples
Find the range values of the function for the given domain.y = -3x + 2 ; {-1, 0, 1, 2}
The range values for the given domain are { 5, 2, -1, -4}.
Steps
1. Sub in each domain value in one @ a time.
2. Solve for y in each
3. List y values in braces.
y = -3x + 2 y = -3(-1) + 2 y = 3 + 2 y = 5
y = -3x + 2
y = -3(0) + 2
y = 0 + 2
y = 2
y = -3x + 2 y = -3(1) + 2y = -3 + 2y = -1
y = -3x + 2 y = -3(2) + 2y = -6 +2y = -4
