The document defines key terms related to functions, including domain, range, and linear functions. It provides an example of writing a function to represent the relationship between the number of cups of coffee made and the total number of spoonfuls needed. The example function is f(c) = 2c + 5, where c is the independent variable representing cups and s is the dependent variable for spoonfuls. A table of values and graph of this linear function are included.
