Definition: A function is a relation from a set of inputs to a set of possible outputs where each input is related to exactly one output.
Identifying Functions: A relation is a function when each x value corresponds to only one y value.
Types of Representations: Functions can be represented algebraically (equations), graphically (graphs), and numerically (tables).
Zeros: Solutions to the equation when the function equals zero;
Maximum/Minimum: The highest or lowest point of the parabola; determined by vertex calculations.
Real-world Applications: Quadratic functions model scenarios such as projectile motion (e.g., basketball shot).
Polynomial, Radical, Rational Expressions: Understanding equivalences and simplifications.
