Function Notation

Math ⇒ Functions

Function Notation starts at 9 and continues till grade 12. QuestionsToday has an evolving set of questions to continuously challenge students so that their knowledge grows in Function Notation. How you perform is determined by your score and the time you take. When you play a quiz, your answers are evaluated in concept instead of actual words and definitions used.
See sample questions for grade 11
Explain the meaning of the notation f(a) in your own words.
Which of the following is NOT a correct way to write the value of function f at x? (1) f(x) (2) y (3) f at x (4) value of f(x)
Which of the following is the correct interpretation of f(0)? (1) The value of the function f when x = 0 (2) The function f multiplied by 0 (3) The function f at any value (4) None of the above
Which of the following represents the value of the function f at x = a? (1) f(a) (2) f(x) (3) a(f) (4) x(f)
Which of the following statements is true about function notation? (1) f(x) is always a linear function (2) f(x) can represent any type of function (3) f(x) is only used for quadratic functions (4) f(x) is always positive
Fill in the blank: If f(x) = 2x + 5, then f(-2) = _______.
Fill in the blank: If f(x) = 4x, then f(5) = _______.
Fill in the blank: If f(x) = x/2, then f(10) = _______.
True or False: In function notation, the variable inside the parentheses is always x.
True or False: The function notation f(a) always means to substitute a for x in the function f(x).
True or False: The notation f(a) can be used even if the function is not defined at a.
True or False: The notation f(x) means f multiplied by x.
