WARM UP

LESSON: 1.1 Introduction to Functions

What is a Relation?
A relation is any relationship between the independent variable (x) and the dependent variable (y). In other words, a set of inputs and outputs, usually written as an ordered pair. (x,y)

        
What is a Function?
A function relates an input to an output. It is a special relation that has a single output for each input. That is, each "x" has only 1 "y" value. 

           "All functions are relations, but not all relations are functions."

Functions can be represented in different ways:
- set of ordered pairs {(0,2), (5,8), (7,-10)}
- equation y = 2x + 5, y = x^2 + 2x -1, etc.
- input - output diagram input (x) -> x^2 + 5 -> output (y)
- function notation f(x) = 3x - 2

There are three major ways to show functions visually:

                 ARROW DIAGRAMS                TABLES          GRAPHS

What is VLT?
It is vertical line test. It lets you determine if a graph is a function or not. 
If any vertical line intersects (crosses) the graph of a relation more than once, the relation is not a function.
