Topic

Functions and Relations

Definition

An absolute value function is a function that contains an algebraic expression within absolute value symbols. It is defined as 

$$ f(x) = |x| $$

where |x| denotes the absolute value ofx.

Description

The absolute value function is significant in mathematics because it measures the distance of a number from zero on the number line, regardless of direction. This function is linear in nature, as it can be broken into two linear pieces: one for 

$$ x \geq 0 $$

 and one for 

$$ x < 0 $$

Topic

Functions and Relations

Definition

A composite function is a function that is formed when one function is applied to the result of another function.

Description

Composite functions are significant in mathematics because they allow the combination of two functions to form a new function. This is denoted as (f∘g)(x) = f(g(x)). Composite functions are widely used in various fields, including computer science for function composition in programming and in calculus for chain rule applications. For example, if f(x) = 2x and g(x) = x + 3, then the composite function 

(f∘g)(x) = f(g(x)) = 2(x + 3) = 2x+6

Topic

Functions and Relations

Definition

Conic sections are the curves obtained by intersecting a plane with a double-napped cone.

Description

Conic sections include circles, ellipses, parabolas, and hyperbolas, which are fundamental in the study of geometry and algebra. These shapes are described by quadratic equations and have numerous applications in physics, engineering, and astronomy. For example, the orbits of planets are ellipses, and parabolic mirrors are used in telescopes and satellite dishes. The general quadratic equation for conic sections is 

Ax2 + Bxy + Cy2 + Dx + Ey + F = 0

Definition

A continuous function is a function that does not have any breaks, holes, or gaps in its domain.

Description

Continuous functions are fundamental in calculus and mathematical analysis because they allow for the application of limits, derivatives, and integrals. A function f(x) is continuous if, for every point 𝑐 c in its domain, 

lim x→c ​ f(x) = f(c)

A decreasing function is a function where the value of the function decreases as the input increases.

Description

Decreasing functions are important in mathematics because they describe scenarios where an increase in one variable leads to a decrease in another. This is mathematically represented as 

f(x1) > f(x2) for any đ‘„1 < đ‘„2 ​

Topic

Functions and Relations

Definition

Distorting a function horizontally involves stretching or compressing the graph of the function along the x-axis.

Description

Horizontal distortions of functions are significant because they alter the input values while maintaining the overall shape of the graph. This is mathematically represented as 

f(kx)

where k is a constant. If k > 1, the function compresses horizontally, and if 0 < 𝑘 < 1, it stretches.

Definition

An even function is a function that satisfies the condition f(x) = f(−x) for all x in its domain.

Description

Even functions are important in mathematics because they exhibit symmetry about the y-axis. This property is useful in various fields, including physics and engineering, where symmetry simplifies analysis and problem-solving. For example, the function 

f(x)=x2

Definition

A function machine is a conceptual tool used to understand how functions work by visualizing inputs and outputs.

Description

The function machine is a useful educational tool that helps students grasp the concept of functions by visualizing the process of converting inputs into outputs. It emphasizes the idea that a function takes an input, processes it according to a specific rule, and produces an output. For example, if the function is 

f(x) = x + 2

Function notation is a way to represent functions in the form f(x), where f denotes the function and x denotes the input variable.

Description

Function notation is a standardized way to write functions, making it easier to understand and communicate mathematical relationships. It is widely used in algebra, calculus, and other branches of mathematics. For example, the notation 

f(x) = x2
