Functions
DEFINITION:A function from a set to a set is a pairing of elements from and from as ordered pair such that, for every in there is one and only one in .
We commonly refer to as the independent quantity and to as the dependent quantity.
The set from which the independent quantity is taken is called the domain of the function
The set which includes the dependent quantity is called the range of the function

Viewing and Interpreting Graphs
DEFINITION:The points in the plane whose coordinates are the number pairs of a function make up the function’s graph.

Domain and Range
• Your textbook asks you to find the domain and range of a function by viewing the graph of the function
• Although the graph of a function can give you an idea of the domain and range, it is important to find these values analytically
• In the previous example (), the domain is determined by context (radius cannot be negative) so the domain is
• If the domain of a function is not stated, it is assumed that the domain is the largest set of -values for which the equation gives real -values

Domain and Range

• The figure on the right is from page 13 of your textbook

Composite Functions
• It is important to keep in mind that in any function , y (and hence also ) is a real number.
• Just as we may input any value of x from the domain to evaluate a function, we may also use another function as input
• If we have two functions of x, f and g, we can compose the functions as
• Here, the function g is an input for the function f
• A common notation for composition of functions is
• This is read as “f of g of x”
