4 WAYS TO DESCRIBE A FUNCTION Checkpoint Checkpoint (cont.) Checkpoint (cont.) Extra Example 3 Extra Example 3 (cont.) Extra Example 3 (cont.) Checkpoint Checkpoint (cont.) * 1.7 An Introduction to Functions GOAL 1 Identify a function and make an input-output table for a function. GOAL 2 Write an equation for a real-life function, such as the relationship between water pressure and depth. What you should learn To represent real-life relationships between two quantities such as time and altitude for a rising hot-air balloon. Why you should learn it GOAL 1 INPUT-OUTPUT TABLES EXAMPLE 1 1.6 Tables and Graphs VOCABULARY function input/domain output/range input-output table In a function, each input has exactly one output. Another way to put it is no number in the input can be repeated. Extra Example 1 The profit on the school play is $4 per ticket minus $280, the expense to build the set. There are 300 seats in the theater. The profit for n tickets sold is p = 4n – 280 for 70 ≤ n ≤ 300. Make an input-output table. b. Is this a function? c. Describe the domain and range. EXAMPLE 2 p 300 … 73 72 71 70 n 920 … 12 8 4 0 p 300 … 73 72 71 70 n Yes; none of the inputs are repeated. Domain: 70, 71, 72, 73,… , 300 Range: 0, 4, 8, 12,… ,920 You bicycle 4 mi and decide to ride for 2.5 more hours at 6 mi/hr. The distance you have traveled d after t hours is given by d = 4 + 6t, where 0 ≤ t ≤ 2.5. Make an input-output table. Calculate d for each half-hour (t = 0, 0.5, 1, 1.5, 2, 2.5). b. Draw a line graph. Extra Example 2 d 2.5 2 1.5 1 0.5 0 t 19 16 13 10 7 4 d 2.5 2 1.5 1 0.5 0 t Extra Example 2 (cont.) 19 16 13 10 7 4 d 2.5 2 1.5 1 0.5 0 t Input-Output Table Description in Words Equation Graph By the end of the lesson you should be able to move comfortably among all four representations. You will then have a variety of ways to model real-life situations. A plane is at 2000 ft. It climbs at a rate of 1000 ft/min for 4 min. The altitude h for t minutes is given b
