The document discusses functions and their properties. It defines a function as a special relation where each element of the domain is mapped to exactly one element of the range. Functions can be represented using arrow diagrams, Cartesian diagrams, or sets of ordered pairs. The number of possible mappings between two sets depends on the sizes of the sets. A one-to-one correspondence exists when each element of one set is paired with a unique element of the other set. A function formula expresses the relationship between an independent variable and dependent variable. The graph of a function consists of all the points (x, f(x)) where x is in the domain and f(x) is the image of x under the function.
