FUNCTION
The relation in example 1 (above) is called a _____________________ because:
each independent variable only has I corresponding dependent variable
___________________________________________________________________
each X-value ONLY has 1 y-value
___________________________________________________________________
NOT A FUNCTION
The relation in example 2 is: ___________________________________

Function Notation: Notation used to represent the value of the dependent variable (the output) for a given value
of the independent variable (the input).
Symbols such as f(x) and g(x) are used to represent the dependent variable y for a given value of the independent
variable x. Foe this reason, y and f(x) are interchangeable in the equation of a function, so y = f(x).

MCR 3U Lesson 1.5 Inverse of a Function
The inverse of a function is the reverse of the original function. It undoes what the original has done and
can be found using the inverse operations of the original function in reverse order.
The inverse of a function is not necessarily a function.
The symbol f 1 ( x) is the notation for the inverse function of f .
Ex. 1 The cost to rent a hall for a party is $200 plus $10 per guest.
Let ((g) = cost for 'g' guests
guests attending
#
g
= of
a) Use function notation to write an equation b) What would be the cost for 80 guests to attend?
representing this relation, where the cost of
the party is the dependent variable. C(80) =
200 + 10/00)
= 200 + 000
((g) =
200 +
109 =
$1000
- It costs $1000 for 80 guests .
c) Use function notation to write an equation d) How many guests could attend for $960?
representing this relation, where the number
of guests is the dependent variable.
g =
90-200
((g) 200 =
109
-
= 76
(200 .. 76 guests can attend for $960 -

the operations, AND for ii) by interchanging the variables
