Hello,
1) A function takes a set of numerical instructions and computes the answer.
2) A - f(4)
B - f(17)
C - f(0)
3) f(x) = x/4-5

[djtomt]

Homework:

1. Describe what a function does in your own words.
   A function is an mathematical instruction that describes an input and then how to perform a calculation to derive the output.
2. Calculate the output of the following function:
   f(x) = {

x(power of 2) if x is even

x+10 if x is odd

}
What will be the output for the following inputs?

a) f(2)
x=2, 2 is an even number, therefore the output will be 2 to the power of 2, or 2*2=4
b) f(7)
x=7, 7 is an odd number, therefore the output will be 7+10=17
c) f(0)
This is simple x=0

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

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

[dlbc]

Describe what a function does in your own words

A math process where you can input a number and a number is returned, based on how that process is defined.

What will be the output for the following inputs?

a) f(2)   =  4

b) f(7)   =  17

c) f(0)   =  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.
