Exploring Functions and Function Notation

The video tutorial covers the concept of functions and function notation, explaining how a function is a relation where each input has a single output. It uses examples to differentiate between functions and non-functions, introduces the vertical line test for identifying functions on a graph, and explains function notation. The tutorial also demonstrates how to evaluate functions with various inputs, use graphs to find function values, and apply function notation in tables. Finally, it applies these concepts to a real-world scenario involving a teacher's salary calculation.

What is a relation in the context of functions?

• A set of ordered pairs

• A single unordered pair

• A single ordered pair

• A set of unordered pairs

How would you evaluate f(x) = 2x - 3 for x = -1?

• f(-1) = -2 + 3

• f(-1) = 2(-1) - 3

• f(-1) = 2(-1) + 3

• f(-1) = -2 - 3
