MAPPING

What is a mapping?
Inputs A mapping is something which maps
an input value to an output value.

-1 -1 Outputs

0 1

f(x) = 2x + 1

 The domain is the set of possible inputs.  The range is the set of possible outputs.
What is a mapping?
We can also illustrate a mapping graphically, where the 𝑥 axis is the
input and the 𝑦 axis is the output 𝑓(𝑥).

𝑦
where 𝑓 𝑥 = 2𝑥 + 1

𝑥
What is a function?
 A function is: a mapping such that every element of the domain is mapped to
exactly one element of the range.
Notation:
𝑓 𝑥 = 2𝑥 + 1 𝑓: 𝑥 → 2𝑥 + 1

Function? y

For each value of 𝑥


For each input (𝑥 value), (except 0), we get two

One-to-one vs Many-to-one
While functions permit an input only to be mapped to one output, there’s nothing
stopping multiple different inputs mapping to the same output.

Type Description Example

Many-to-one Multiple inputs can map


function to the same output.
f(x) = x2
2 e.g. f(2) = 4
4
f(-2) = 4
-2

One-to-one Each output has one


function input and vice versa. f(x) = 2x + 1

Example
𝑦

𝑓 𝑥 = 𝑥 2
Sketch:
is an element of 𝑥

Domain: 𝑥∈ℝ
…the set of real numbers

We can use any real number as the input!

Range: 𝑓 𝑥 ≥0
The output has to be positive, since it’s been squared.

Type: Many-to-one

 Bro Tip: Note that the domain is in terms of 𝑥 and the range in terms of 𝑓 𝑥 .
Test Your Understanding
𝑦

𝑓 𝑥 = 𝑥 Sketch:
𝑥

Domain: 𝑥≥0
Presuming the output has to be a real number, we
can’t input negative numbers into our function.

Range: 𝑓 𝑥 ≥0
The output, again, can only be positive.
