FUNCTIONS
1. If f x x 3 1, then (a) the value of f at x 1 is f 1 1 3 1 0. (b) the value of f at x 2 is f 2 23 1 9. (c) the net change in the value of f between x 1 and x 2 is f 2 f 1 9 0 9. 2. For a function f , the set of all possible inputs is called the domain of f , and the set of all possible outputs is called the range of f . x 5 have 5 in their domain because they are defined when x 5. However, 3. (a) f x x 2 3x and g x x T T T h x x 10 is undefined when x 5 because 5 10 5, so 5 is not in the domain of h. 0 5 5 0. (b) f 5 52 3 5 25 15 10 and g 5 5 5 4. (a) Verbal: “Subtract 4, then square and add 3.� (b) Numerical: x

5. A function f is a rule that assigns to each element x in a set A exactly one element called f x in a set B. Table (i) defines y as a function of x, but table (ii) does not, because f 1 is not uniquely defined. 6. (a) Yes, it is possible that f 1 f 2 5. [For instance, let f x 5 for all x.] (b) No, it is not possible to have f 1 5 and f 1 6. A function assigns each value of x in its domain exactly one value of f x . 7. Multiplying x by 3 gives 3x, then subtracting 5 gives f x 3x 5. 8. Squaring x gives x 2 , then adding two gives f x x 2 2. 9. Subtracting 1 gives x 1, then squaring gives f x x 1 2 . 10. Adding 1 gives x 1, taking the square root gives
