Describe what a function does in your own words
A function takes an input and based on a computation puts out an output
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?
f(X) = x4/-5
1 A function carries out an instruction on an input
2, a) 4
b)17
c)0
A function executes an operation or operations on a given variable or variables to generate a value.
f(2) = 4 f(0) = 0 f(7) = 17
f(x) = (x/4) - 5
i was laughing for 5 minutes with your comment. Don’t worry about maths. You need the basic fundamentals of algebra like +,-,/,*,= and to know how to express them so the computer understands what you want him to do, you give the problem and the computer makes the practise for you. This is more to understand what a function in math is and how it works, so you can also later convert it in a computer language and it will be easier to understand how a computing language function works 
A function takes some input value(s), performs some pre-defined (programmed) calculations and return the result of the calculations
f(2)=4
f(7)=17
f(0)=0
f(x) = (x/4)-5
a function is a mathematical condition to be achieved by applying a set of rules where whenever you have a input there is an expected output according to that set of rules.
a=4 b=17 c=0
f(x) = (x/4) - 5
Describe what a function does in your own words.
It defines the input in order for an output to be calculated.
a. 4
b.17
c.0
3.f(x) = 5 - x/4
NOTE: Because of the word choice “subtracted by 5” I belive I wrote it correctly. IF had stated “divides it by four and then subtracts 5 from that output” the answer would be f(x) = x/4 -5
A function is a computation that takes input in order to get an output.
a) 4
b) 17
c) 0
f(x)= (x/4)-5

A Function is a computation formula(s) that takes an Input and computes an output. A Function relates an Input to an Output, and therefore an Output is related somehow to the Input.
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) = 2x2 = 4
b) f(7) = 7 + 10 =17
c) f(0) = 0 + 0 = 0
f(x) = (x/4) - 5
1 - A function is a defined rule that is applied to an input in order to gain an output.
2 -
a) f(2) = 4
b) f(7) = 17
c) f(0) = 10
3 - f(x) = (x/4)-5
a=4
b=17
c=0
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. Describe what a function does in your own words
