Evaluation of Functions

This document discusses different types of functions including quadratic, constant, identity, and absolute value functions. It provides examples of writing equations in function notation and evaluating functions for given values of x. The key points are: - Quadratic functions have a parabolic graph - Constant functions have a horizontal line graph - Identity functions pass through the point of origin - Absolute value functions involve the absolute value - Functions can be written in function notation by replacing y with f(x) - To evaluate a function, substitute the given value of x and simplify

Lesson 1.2
EVALUATION OF
FUNCTION
The function y = 3x2 + 4x - 5 can be written as
f(x) = 3x2 + 4x - 5 which is read as the
“function of x equals 3x + 4x - 5.” f(x) is used
2

in function notation. It replaces the


dependent variable y. f may be any other
letter but not the same as the independent
variable
Examples:
1. How do we write y = 3x – 2 in
function notation?
Simply change y to f(x)
f(x) = 3x - 2
2. How do we write 2x + 3y = 5? Step 2. Divide each term by
the coefficient of y.
2x + 3y = 5 should be written in
"# $ !%
the form y = another expression = −
" " "
before it can be written in Step 3. Simplify
function notation form. 𝑦=
$&!%
"
Step 1. Transpose the x-term to Step 4. Replace y by f(x).
the right. $&!%
𝑓(𝑥) =
3y = 5 – 2x "
3. How do we write y3 = 2x – 7 in function notation?
Do the same thing as in example 2. We take the value of
y in terms of another expression from the given.
Step 1. Extract the cube root of both sides.
! !
𝑦! = 2𝑥 − 7
!
𝑦 = 2𝑥 − 7
Step 2. Replace y by f(x).
!
𝑓(𝑥) = 2𝑥 − 7
Consider the following:
If f(x) = 3x – 2, then what is f(2)?
What does it mean? It asks you
about the value of the function f(x)
when the value of x is 2.
What to do:
Substitute 2 to x then simplify following the
GEMDAS.
f(x) = 3x – 2. Remember that 3x means 3 times x
so
f(2) = 3(2) – 2
=6–2
f(2) = 4
More Examples:

1. f(x) = 2x2 – 5x + 8 2. f(x) = x3 – 4 3. f(x) = 5x - 3


f(-1) = 2(-1)2 -5(-1) + 8 f(2a) = (2a)3 – 4 f(x + 2) = 5(x + 2) -3
= 2(1) + 5 + 8 = 8a3 – 4 = 5x + 10 - 3
=2+5+8 = 5x + 7
= 15
What about if the given is a piece-wise
function

5𝑥 − 3, 𝑥 ≤ −1
f(x) = ! +
2𝑥 + 1, 𝑥 > −1
1. Which sub function will you use if you
are asked to find f(-1)? f(2)?
5𝑥 − 3, 𝑥 ≤ −1
f(x) = , !
2𝑥 + 1, 𝑥 > −1

f(-1) = 5(-1) – 3 f(2) = 2(2)2 + 1


= -5 – 3 = 2(4) + 1
= -8 =8+1
f(2) = 9

Notice the sub-function used. Consider the values in the domain.


Other examples:

f(x) = 53𝑥 ! − 4𝑥 + 5, −3 < 𝑥 ≤ 2
5𝑥 − 1, 𝑥 > 2

2.Find f(1) 𝟓𝒙 − 𝟏, 𝒙 > 𝟐

Since 1 is in the bracket of −3 < 𝑥 ≤ 2 then we


use f(x) = 3𝑥 " − 4𝑥 + 5
f(1) = 3(1)2 – 4(1) + 5
= 3(1) – 4 + 5
=3–4+5
=4
𝟒, 𝒙 ≤ −𝟑
f(x) = !𝟑𝒙𝟐 − 𝟒𝒙 + 𝟓, −𝟑 < 𝒙 ≤ 𝟐
3. Find f(5) 𝟓𝒙 − 𝟏, 𝒙 > 𝟐

Since 5 is in the bracket x > 2 then we use f(x) =
