General Mathematics FUNCTIONS

A relation is defined as a rule connecting values from a domain to a range, represented as a set of ordered pairs (x, y). A function is a specific type of relation where each domain element corresponds to only one range value, ensuring no two pairs share the same x-value with different y-values. The document also discusses methods to illustrate functions, such as mapping diagrams and the vertical line test for determining if a graph represents a function.

RELATION

It is a rule that relates values from


a set of values called domain to
a second set of values called the
range.
It is a set of ordered pair (𝒙, 𝒚)
FUNCTION
 It is a relation where each element in the
domain is related to only one value in the
range by some rule.
 It is a set of ordered pairs (𝒙, 𝒚) such that
no two ordered pairs have the same x-
value but different y-values.
 Using functional notation, we can write
𝒇 𝒙 =𝒚

Graphing
Vertical line Test
It is a test which states that
a graph represents a function
if and only if each vertical
line intersects the graph at
most once.
DOMAIN
It is the set of all possible
values that the variable x
can take.
