Discrete Function

• A function with ordered pairs that are just points and not connected.

Discrete Function

Continuous Functions??

• A function is continuous if it has an infinite domain and forms a smooth line or curve

• Simply put: It has NO BREAKS!!!

• You should be able to trace it with your pencil from left to right without picking up your pencil

The domain of the function y = f (x) is the set of values of x for which a corresponding value of y exists.

The range of the function y = f (x) is the set of values of y which correspond to the values of x in the domain.

Example: Find the domain and range of the function f (x) = from its graph.

The domain is [–3,∞).

The range is [0,∞).
