Evaluating Functions and Function Notation

This video tutorial covers the basics of function notation, explaining how equations representing functions are written and evaluated. It includes examples of substituting values into functions, using different letters for functions, and solving complex function problems. The tutorial also applies function evaluation to a real-world problem involving anthropological measurements and demonstrates how to evaluate functions using graphs.

What is the function notation for the equation y = 4x - 1?

• f(x) = 4x + 1

• f(x) = 4x - 1

• f(y) = 4x - 1

• y = 4x - 1
