Course Objectives


 * Primary Objectives- By the next class period students will be able to:
 * •	Determine whether a given relation is a function or not.
 * •	Evaluate a given function at a given value.
 * •	Determine the domain and range of a function.


 * Sub Objectives- The objectives will require that students be able to:
 * Graph a function and identify the X and Y intercepts of a function.
 * Determine whether a real number can be part of the domain.
 * Identify the domain and range of a function given the graph of a function.
 * Set up a linear function given a real life context.

•	Identifying what to include in the domain of a function. •	Setting up real-world application problems involving a function. •	Understanding how to set up a function given a word problem. •	Knowing how to interpret a function at a given value.
 * Difficulties- Students may have difficulty:


 * Real-World Contexts- There are many ways that students can use this material in the real-world, such as:
 * Applying and solving a real life application problems by using a function.
