STAAR Function Notation

How would you write y = 2x - 3 in function notation?

• y = 2x-3

• f = 2x - 3

• f(x) = 2x - 3

• Can't be written in function notation

Find f(2)

• 5

• 4

• 3

• 0

Is the relation a function? Why?

• Yes, because the x-value 11 has two y-values paired with it.

• Yes, because each x-value has only one y-value paired with it.

• No, because the x-value 11 has two y-values paired with it.

• No, because each x-value has only one y-value paired with it.

Evaluate f(-2) if f(x) = x + 3

• -1

• 1

• 5

• -5

Function f gives the temperature, in Celsius, t hours after midnight. Use function notation to write an equation or expression for each statement. The temperature was the same at 9 a.m. and at 4 p.m.

• f(9) = f(4)

• f(9) = f(16)

• f(9) = 4

• f(9) = 16

If g(x) = 6(-8x + 12) + 7, what is the value of g(6)?
