100

This word is used to describe the set of all inputs (x values) for a function.

Domain.

100

No, not a function.  It does not pass the vertical line test.

100

f(-3) if f(x) = 2x +1

f(-3) = -5

100

List the DOMAIN:

{(-2, 4), (3, 2), (2, 10)}

{-2, 3, 2}

100

f(x)=2x+3

g(x)=x-1 

Find (f+g)(3)

11

200

This word is used to describe the set of all outputs (y-values) of a function.

Range.

200

Yes, it passes the vertical line test.

200

g(x) = -8x + 2

Find g(4)

g(4) = -30

200

List the RANGE in

{-6, -5, -2, 3, 5}

200
f(x)=3x-4

g(x)=x-4

find (f-g)(-2)

-12

300

This word describes a relation that pairs each x value with only one y value.

Function

300

Does the following table represent a function?
x      y
1      2
2      5
6      2
2      9
5      1

No, because the input (x) of 2 has two different outputs (y).


300

Let f(x) = x2 + x + 1; find f(-5).

f(-5) = 21?

300

{ (-5,7) , (0,0) , (2, -8) , (5, -20) }

List the domain.

{-5, 0, 2, 5}

300

f(x)=x^2-3

 g(x)=x-2 

Find  (fg)(5) 

66

400

What visual test can be used to determine if a graph is a function?

Vertical Line Test.

400

Does the following table represent a function?
x      y
-3    1
-1    4
0     6
2     4
5      1

Yes, there are no repeated x-values

400

g(x) = -3x

Find g(-5)

g(-5) = -75

400

{ (-5,7) , (0,0) , (2, -8) , (5, -20) }

List the range.

{-20, -8, 0 , 7}

400

 f(x)=x^2-7 

g(x)=2x

Find  (f/g)(-2) 

3/4

500

Give three possible ways a function can be represented.

Graph, Mapping Diagram, Table, Ordered Pairs

500

Is this a function and why?

No, because x's repeat at 8.

500

Find the f(x) if f(10)

f(x) = 2/5x + 4

f(10) = 8

500

Find the DOMAIN:


-5<=x<=8  or (-5,8]

500

f(x)=4x-5

g(x)=8x+2

Find (g-f)(x)

4x+7
