1. Describe what a function does in your own words

A function is a math formula that takes an input and then an output is calculated.

2. Calculate the output of the following function

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

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

  1. A function is a mathematical operation that takes an input (usually a number); performs a math computation using that same input to solve the mathematical operation which then results in an output (the answer or solution) to the mathematical operation.

  2. This particular mathematical operation has certain conditions that need to be met in order to arrive at the correct solution. The conditions are: First, if the value of x is an even number, then you need to take the value of x and square it. Second, if the value of x is an odd number, then you must add 10 to the value of x (which must be an odd number).

a) Since the value of x=2 (which is an even number); then you need to “square” that input; 2^2=4
b) Since the value of x=7 (which is an odd number); then you need to add 10 to the input; 7 + 10=17
c) Since the value of x=0 (which is an even number in math); then you need to “square” that input;
0^0=0

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

  1. Describe what a function does in your own words

A function is a mathematical computation determined by a specific set of Syntax variables comprising of the function name and inputs executed to produce an output parameter.

  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?

  • a) f(2) = 4
  • b) f(7) = 17
  • c) f(0). = 0
