What you'll learn
- 1
A function is like a machine that takes an input, does something to it, and gives you an output. 🏭
- 2
If a function machine adds 5, what comes out when you put in 3?
- 3
Let's try a function written as f(x) = 2x + 1. We'll find f(3).
- 4
Try this function machine: f(x) = 3x - 2. What is f(4)?
- 5
For the function f(x) = 5x, what is f(2)?
- 6
Match the input to the output for f(x) = x² + 1.
- 7
If f(x) = 10 - x, what is f(3)?
