remaining in an 8-ounce
bottle decreases by 1/6
ounce for each batch (b)
of waffle cookies made.
4.6: Formalizing Relations and Functions - Be able to determine whether a relation is a function and be able
to find the domain and range and use a function notation.
Directions: Find the domain and range of each relation.
Identify the domain and
range: {(6, -7), (5, -8),
(1,4), (7, 5)}
Identify the domain and
range: {(4, 2), (1,1), (0,0),
(1, -1), (4, -2)}
Is this relation a function? Is this relation a function?

function for the given
domain:
f(x) = 8x -3

4.7: Arithmetic Sequences - Be able to identify and extend patterns in sequences and to represent arithmetic
sequences using function notation.
Directions: Tell whether the sequence is arithmetic. If it is, identify the common difference.
