Solution :

Rule ==> Multiply the input number by itself.

Formula :

m  =  n ⋅ n

Input

n = 1

n = 2

n = 3

n = 5

Output

m  = 1 ⋅ 1  ==>  1

m  = 2 ⋅ 2  ==>  4

m  = 3 ⋅ 3  ==>  9

Solution :

Rule ==> Double the input number then add one.

Formula :

m  =  2n+1

Input

n = 1

n = 2

n = 3

n = 8

Output

m  = 2(1)+1  ==>  3

m  = 2(2)+1  ==>  5

m  = 2(3)+1  ==>  7

m  = 2(8)+1  ==>  17

Formula :

m  =  2(n-3)

Input

n = 3

n = 4

n = 10

n = 15

Output

m  = 2(3-3)  ==>  0

m  = 2(4-3)  ==>  2

m  = 2(10-3)  ==>  14

Complete each Function Table by calculating the output ‘y’ (or f(x)) for each input value ‘x’.

Question 7 :

Solution :

Applying each input, we get

  • When x = 0, y = 3x ==> y = 3(0) ==> 0
  • When x = 1, y = 3x ==> y = 3(1) ==> 3
  • When x = 2, y = 3x ==> y = 3(2) ==> 6
  • When x = 3, y = 3x ==> y = 3(3) ==> 9
  • When x = 4, y = 3x ==> y = 3(4) ==> 12

By applying all the values, we get

Independent variable

Question 8 :

Solution :

Applying each input, we get

  • When x = -2, y = x + 2 ==> y = -2 + 2 ==> 0
  • When x = -1, y = x + 2 ==> y = -1 + 2 ==> 1
  • When x = 0, y = x + 2 ==> y = 0 + 2 ==> 2
  • When x = 1, y = x + 2 ==> y = 1 + 2 ==> 3
  • When x = 2, y = x + 2 ==> y = 2 + 2 ==> 4

By applying all the values, we get

Independent variable

Question 9 :

Consider the function rule:

Multiply the input by two and then subtract one to get the output.

(a) Fill in the table for the inputs and outputs. Inputs are often designated by and outputs by .

Inputs are 0, 1, 2, 3

(b) Write an equation that gives this rule in symbolic form.

Solution :

Let x be the inputs 

Multiply the input by 2, then 2x

Then, subtract 1, we get

y = 2 x - 1

When input (x) = 0, then y = 2(0) - 1 ==> -1

When input (x) = 1, then y = 2(1) - 1 ==> 1

When input (x) = 2, then y = 2(2) - 1 ==> 3

When input (x) = 3, then y = 2(3) - 1 ==> 5

Completing the table,

Input (x)

0

3

Output (y)

-1

5

b) Rule in symbolic form is y = 2 x - 1.
