Functions
A function is a relationship between
two changing variables
• An “input” variable
• An “output” variable
– The result of “doing” the function to the output
variable
• Both variables change so that the “input”
variable always tells you exactly what the
“output” variable is.
– You never get two outputs for the same input.

(f+g)(x)=f(x)+g(x)
(f-g)(x)=f(x)-g(x)
(fg)(x)=f(x)*g(x)
(f/g)(x)=f(x)/g(x), g(x)≠0
(f∘g)(x)=f(g(x))

COMPARISON
f (x) = 2x -1, g(x) = (x - 3)2
(f∘g)(3)=f(g(3))
(fg)(3)=f(3)g(3)
g(3) = (3- 3)2
g(3) = 0
ƒ(g(3)) = ƒ(0) = 2 * 0 -1 = -1
ƒ(g(3)) = -1
-1≠0
f (3) = 5
g(3) = 0
f (3)g(3) = ( 5) ( 0) = 0
( fg)(3) = 0
Graphing Transformations
• The graph for ƒ(x)+c is the graph of ƒ(x) shifted up by c.
• The graph for ƒ(x-a) is the graph of ƒ(x) shifted right by a.
– NOTE THE MINUS SIGN
• The graph for rƒ(x) is the graph of ƒ(x) stretched vertically by r.
– negative r causes the graph to flip vertically.
• The graph for ƒ(sx) is the graph of ƒ(x) squished horizontally by s.
– Negative s causes the graph to flip horizontally
• Note the difference!
Even and Odd
• A function ƒ is EVEN if ƒ(-x)=ƒ(x). Example: x2
• A function ƒ is ODD if ƒ(-x)=-ƒ(x). Example: x3
• A function ƒ is NEITHER if ƒ(-x)=something else. Example: x3+1

How to find a function inverse

ƒ(x)=………….x………….
Rewrite as y=……………x…………
Solve for x. x=~~~~y~~~~~~
Rewrite as an inverse ƒ-1(y)=~~~~y~~~~~~
OPTIONAL: change ys to xs.
• ƒ-1(x)=~~~~x~~~~~~
• WARNING: Always check that your inverse is
actually a function.
Given f (x) = 7x + 1 on the domain of all real
numbers, find f -1(x). Be sure to write your
answer as a function of x.
a)
b)
c)
d)
e)
f -1(x) = (1/7)x − 1/7
f -1(x) = x − 1/7
f -1(x) = 1/(7x+1)
Both (a) and (c)
None of the above
Given f (x) = 7x + 1 on the domain of all real
numbers, find f -1(x). Be sure to write your
answer as a function of x.
ƒ(x)=7x+1
y=7x+1
(y-1)/7=x
x=(1/7)y-(1/7)
ƒ-1(y)=(1/7)y-(1/7)
ƒ-1(x)=(1/7)x-(1/7)
A
Lines
Point slope form
• The equation of a line with slope m through
point (a,b) is
y - b = m(x - a)
• If you don’t know the slope, know two points
(a1,b1) and (a2,b2), then the slope m is just the
slope formula for those points.
b2 - b1
m=
a2 - a1
Slope intercept form
y = mx + b
• Slope intercept form is the “simplest” form of
a line
– “Simplify” means put in slope intercept form
Doing the same thing to both sides
• Adding, Subtracting, Multiplying, Dividing, a number
from both sides of the equation.
– Changes the value of both sides, but not the equality.

• Each side is a number. When multiplying (or dividing) multiply
(or divide) the whole number.

Solving Inequalitites
• When I divide by a negative, I can have the same
effect as “moving to the other side” by “flipping the
sign”
Moved x
8 < 4 - 2x
8 + 2x < 4
8 < 4 - 2x
8 - 4 < -2x
2x < -4
4 < -2x
x < -2
-2 > x

Polynomials
Arithmetic on complex numbers
• 1 and i cannot be combined. They are on
separate axes.
– 1+i can’t be simplified, just like x+y can’t be simplified.
• Treat i like a variable and you will be ok.
• Remember that i2=-1 and √(-1)=i
– This can be simplified
2 + 3i
1+ 2i
Examples
(2 + 3i)(1- 2i)
=
1- (-4)
(2 + 3i) (1- 2i)
=
(1+ 2i) (1- 2i)
(2 + 3i)(1- 2i)

Roots
Solving Polynomials
1) Use the Rational Root Test to come up with
guesses for roots.
2) Use Synthetic Division to test roots and factor
the polynomial
3) When you have only a quadratic left, use the
quadratic formula
