  2. Function (mathematics) - Wikipedia

    en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Function_(mathematics)

    A partial function from X to Y is thus a ordinary function that has as its domain a subset of X called the domain of definition of the function. If the domain of definition equals X, one often says that the partial function is a total function.

    If y is a variable that depends on x, then , read as "d y over d x" (commonly shortened to "d y d x"), is the derivative of y with respect to x. 2. If f is a function of a single variable x , then d f d x {\displaystyle \textstyle {\frac {\mathrm {d} f}{\mathrm {d} x}}} is the derivative of f , and d f d x ( a ) {\displaystyle \textstyle {\frac ...

  5. Exponential function - Wikipedia

    en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Exponential_function

    The graph always lies above the x-axis, but becomes arbitrarily close to it for large negative x; thus, the x-axis is a horizontal asymptote. The equation d d x e x = e x {\displaystyle {\tfrac {d}{dx}}e^{x}=e^{x}} means that the slope of the tangent to the graph at each point is equal to its height (its y -coordinate) at that point.

  6. Surjective function - Wikipedia

    en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Surjective_function

    In mathematics, a surjective function (also known as surjection, or onto function / ˈ ɒ n. t uː /) is a function f such that, for every element y of the function's codomain, there exists at least one element x in the function's domain such that f(x) = y.

  7. Domain of a function - Wikipedia

    en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Domain_of_a_function

    A function f from X to Y. The set of points in the red oval X is the domain of f. Graph of the real-valued square root function, f(x) = √ x, whose domain consists of all nonnegative real numbers. In mathematics, the domain of a function is the set of inputs accepted by the function.

  8. Range of a function - Wikipedia

    en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Range_of_a_function

    Given two sets X and Y, a binary relation f between X and Y is a function (from X to Y) if for every element x in X there is exactly one y in Y such that f relates x to y. The sets X and Y are called the domain and codomain of f, respectively. The image of the function f is the subset of Y consisting of only those elements y of Y such that ...

  9. Graph of a function - Wikipedia

    en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Graph_of_a_function

    Given a function: from a set X (the domain) to a set Y (the codomain), the graph of the function is the set [4] = {(, ()):}, which is a subset of the Cartesian product.In the definition of a function in terms of set theory, it is common to identify a function with its graph, although, formally, a function is formed by the triple consisting of its domain, its codomain and its graph.
