11. Relations and Functions
Definition-A function is defined as a relation in
which every element in the domain has a unique
image in the range. In other words, a function is one
to one relation and many to one relation
12. Representation of Functions
1. Verbally ( by a description in words)

TRANSFORMATIONS OF FUNCTIONS
The graph of one function can be transform into the graph of a
different function rely on a function’s equation.

32. COMBINATION OF FUNCTIONS
Functions can be added, subtracted, multiplied and
divided in a many ways.
For example consider
a) f(x)+g(x)
b) f(x)-g(x)
c) f(x)/g(x)
d) f(x).g(x)
and

and
g(x)+f(x)
g(x)-f(x)
g(x)/f(x)
g(x).f(x)
33. COMPOSITE FUNCTIONS
DefinitionWe define f g
Consider two functions f(x) and g(x).
fg ( x ) f [ g ( x )] meaning that the output
values of the function g are used as the input values for
the function f.
34. Example 6:
If
f (x)=3x +1
of x
(a)
f ° g
(b)
g° f
and
g(x)=2-x , find as a function
36. Example 7:
If
f (x)=3x +1
and
g(x)=2-x , find as a function
of x
(a)
Find f ° g and determine its domain and range
(b)
Find g ° f and determine its domain and range
37. Properties for Graph of Functions
All forms of relations can be represented on
coordinates
To test if a graph displayed is a function, vertical lines
are drawn parallel to the y – axis.
The graph is a function if each vertical line drawn
through the domain cuts the graph at only one point.
38. Example 8:
Consider the graphs shown below and state whether
they represent functions:

Figure above shows the graph of these two functions on the same pair axes.
The dotted line is the graph y=x. These graphs illustrate a general
relationship between the graph of a function and that of its inverse, namely
that one graph is the reflection of the other in the line y = x.
