Function Notation and Applications

This video introduces functions, explaining them as rules that assign specific outputs to inputs. It uses examples like cell phone costs, cable bills, taxi fares, and theme park rides to illustrate function concepts, including domain and range. The video also covers function notation and the relationship between inputs and outputs.

What is a function in mathematical terms?

• A process that does not involve inputs and outputs

• A machine that produces random outputs

• A rule that assigns a specific output for every input

• A rule that assigns multiple outputs for each input
