1.-to me a function is a designed stepbystep process to which we submit an input to get a desired output, as an automateed way to solve a repetitive action.
2.- a.4; b,17; c.0 as is it an even n.
3.-f(x)= (x/4)-5

  1. A function is a relationship between sets so that one input has a uniquely representative output.
  2. f(2)=22=4 f(7)=7+10=17 f(0)=00=0
  3. F(x) = x/4-5 **order of operations no parenthesis needed

Homework on Functions - Questions

  1. Describe what a function does in your own words.

Answer: A function is a computation that predicts the output based upon the selected numbers and parameters to use in the input portion of the formula.

  1. Calculate the output of the following function
f(x) = {

x^2 if x is even

x+10 if x is odd

}

What will be the output for the following inputs?

Answers
* a) f(2) = 4
* b) f(7) = 17
* c) f(0) = 0

3. Write the definition of a function f that takes an input x, divides it by four and then outputs that result subtracted by 5.

Ans: f(x) = (x/4) - 5

  1. A function performs an action. In many cases, a function will take in one or more arguments to be used in some sort of calculation, and then a value is some times returned.

2a. 4
2b. 17
2c. 0

  1. f(x) = {
    x/4-5

  1. A function is a mathematical computation that can use input variables to give an output or result.

(assuming ^ means multiple)
f(x) = x^2, a. 4, b. 14, c. 0
f(x) = x+10, a. 4, b. 17, c. 10

  1. f(x) = (x/4)-5

  1. A function does a task when it is called. You input something x, and the function outsputs the result y.
  2. a=4, b=17, c=0
  3. f(x)= (x/4)-5

A function is the process of taking the input information, performing an action to it like addition, subtraction, multiplying and dividing, and the finished equation is the output. From studying this process, you can also write a function out in math terms or into a table.

  1. a) 4
    b) 17
    c)0

  2. f(x) = (x/4)-5
