Modelling Relations
Bob has a summer job cutting lawns for $ 10/¿hour. The amount he earns is related to the
number of hours he works.

Which of these types of models is generally preferred? For example, what is the best way to
represent the line with equation y=x +3 ?
Function: ____________________________________________________________________
____________________________________________________________________
Function Machine: Relation:

Looking at these graphs, which ones are functions?

Graphic Test: If a relation is a function, a ______________________________ drawn

anywhere on the graph will intersect the graph in only one location.

Algebraic Test: If a relation is a function, substituting any value for x will result in
________________ value of y .

Example 1 Which of the following are functions? Justify your answer.

a) b) c)
 d) (1 , 3),(2 , 4 ),(3 ,5),(4 , 6)} e) {(1 ,3),(1 , 4),(1 , 5),(1, 6)}

f) {(3 , 1),(4 , 1),(5 , 1),(6 ,1) g) y=2 x +1

h) x 2+ y 2=25

Are all lines functions?

Number Systems:

Example 2 What kinds of numbers are appropriate?

a) Bob sold n T-Shirts for p dollars. b) Measurement of object lengths

c) Time measured in seconds d) displacements

Example 3 Describe where the following functions are located in the cartesian grid.

Domain: ____________________________________________________________________

Range: ____________________________________________________________________

Example 4 Write the domain and range for the functions below and all the pictures above.

a) {(1 ,3),(1 , 4),(1 , 5),(1, 6)}

b) y= √ x
 1
c) y=¿
x

d) y= ( x −4 )2−3

e) y=−2 ( x +1 )2 +5

Example 5 Graph the following functions below:

y=x −2 , D={ x ∈ R } y=x −2 , D={ x ∈ Z } y=x −2 , D={x ∈ N }

y=x −2 , D={ x ∈ R ,−3< x } y=x −2 , D={ x ∈ R ,−2< x <3 }

Mapping
A mapping diagram is a representation that can be used when the relation is given as set of
ordered pairs

Domain Range
Example 6 Use the mapping diagram:
a) write the set of ordered pairs of the relation
b) state if the relation is a function

Domain Range Domain Range

Draw a mapping diagram of y=5 with a domain of D={1 ,2 , 3 , 4 , 5 , 6 }.

Draw a mapping diagram of x=3 with a range of R={1 ,2 , 3 , 4 ,5 , 6 }.

Make an example of a mapping diagram of a function, and one that is not a function.

Draw an example of a graph that is a function and one that is not a function.
