GM - Session 1-Introduction To Functions

The document discusses functions and relations in real-world contexts. It provides examples of functions, such as the circumference of a circle being a function of diameter. It also discusses vending machine scenarios to illustrate the difference between functions and relations. Functions are defined as rules that relate one output to exactly one input, while relations can relate multiple outputs to a single input. Vertical and horizontal line tests are introduced to determine if a graph represents a function.

At the end of the session the students must be

able to:
1. represent real-life situations using functions,
including piece-wise functions M11GM-Ia-1;
Let’s recall

What is relation?

What is function?

Is a function a relation?
Suppose there is a vending machine, with five
buttons labeled 1, 2, 3, 4, 5.

Scenario 1:
Pressing Button 1 will dispense a bottled water.
Pressing 2, will give you a milk drink while
pressing 3 will give you a coffee drink. If 4 is
pressed, it hands out fruit drink. Then pressing
5, gives a soda.

Scenario 2: Same vending machine, same


buttons, same five products dispensed.
However, when you press button 3, you
sometimes get a coffee drink and sometimes
get a soda. Otherwise, everything is the same
as in Scenario 1.

Is a function a relation?
Key Concepts
• Relations are rules that relate two values, one from a
set of inputs and the second from the set of outputs.

• Functions are rules that relate only one value from


the set of outputs to a value from the set of inputs.

• The domain of a relation is the set of all possible


values that the variable x can take
Lesson 1

Functions in Real World


• Circumference of a circle is a function of
diameter.

•Arm length is a function of height.

On average and over a


large age range the
human body has an
arm span that is
roughly equal to its
height and a femur
bone roughly a quarter
of its height.
Shadows - The length of a shadow is a function
of its height and the time of day.

Key Terms:
Relation – a correspondence
between the domain and the
range.
Function – is a relation such that
to each element of the domain,
there is exactly one element of
range assigned.

We write f(x) to denote a


function whose input is x.
FUNCTIONS

FUNCTIONS
Example: Non-Example:
Determine if the following represents a function.

1.
X -3 -2 -1 0 1 3 4
y 10 5 2 1 2 5 6
Determine if the following represents a function.

2.
X 1 1 1 2 4
y 1 2 3 4 5
How can we determine if a graph represents
a function?
Vertical Line Test
Horizontal Line Test
Asynchronous Task 1:

Cite a real-world situation related to the


pandemic that can be represented by a function
then write a mathematical equation or a function
rule to represent the condition.
