Review of Functions
- These are review topics from algebra and pre-calculus it would be good to just briefly brush up on these things!
- As you go through calculus, it will be important to use the correct terminology for the various terms associated with functions clear mathematical communication is important!

Video works fine for me so far. Hope to get a better handle on Calculus now!

In general, any equation can yield a corresponding graph and any graph can be represented by a corresponding equation. Like y = x^2 yields the familiar parabola.
For y = log(x) we can break it apart to be y = f(x) = 1n(x) + x and then move on to solve geometrically.

y = x^2 + 1 would be a function but y^2 = x + 1 is not. To see this algebraically instead of geometrically we can plug a number in for x for the first equation, say, 2, so 2 squared is four + 1 is 5. We have exactly one value of x domain we get one output of y in the equation. Thus, 2^2 + 1 = 5 is a function. Plugging in 3 for the second equation we see it is not a function: y^2 = 3 + so y can be = 2 or -2, therefore there are two outputs from the range y of the equation.

I can't continue the lesson after odd and even examples. Please check it out. i don't know what problem is.

hi what is the difference between exponenial and power function....don't they both involve an exponent? She didn't really clarify how they are different. thanks for a great tutoria otherwise.
