FUNCTIONS
Thus a "function" must be single-valued ("one and only one"). For example,
Y = 5x – 7
To each value of x there is a unique value of y.
The domain of a function is the set of all possible x values which will make
the function "work" and will output real y-values. However the domain may
be arbitrarily restricted.
Solution :
Example 2:
Solution :
Example 3:
d) The range of a function are the values of the Dependant variable, which
are the values of y.
Answer : Consider that the values of x² are which are never negative.
Range = [ 0 , +infinity)
Example : 4
We can see in the graph that the function is not defined for t = -2 and that the
function takes all values except 0.
