Section 3.1 Functions
Relation – a set of ordered pair of points ( x, y ).
Function – a Relation where every x coordinate in the Domain corresponds to exactly one y coordinate in the Range.
Domain – a set of all x coordinates.
Range – a set of all y coordinates.
Dependent Variable – the variable that is isolated in an equation. Traditionally the y variable.
Independent Variable – the variable that is not isolated in an equation. Traditionally the x variable.
Section 3.1 Functions
“Y is a function of X.” – means that y is the Dep. Var. and x is the Indep. Var. Noted as y = f(x).
Given that C is a function of t.
What is the Dep. Var.?
What is the Indep. Var.?
How would you write the notation?
C
t
Noted as C = f(t).
Given that x is a function of y.
