Functions are one of the most fundamental concepts in mathematics, forming the foundation for topics in algebra, calculus and many other areas. A solid understanding of the basics of functions, ...

A continuous function is a mathematical function that does not have any jumps, breaks, or holes in its graph. In other words, you can draw the graph of a continuous function without lifting your ...

This study is an attempt to analyze students' construction of function based problem solving methods in introductory algebra. It claims that for functions to be a main concept for learning school ...

Proceedings of the American Mathematical Society, Vol. 133, No. 4 (Apr., 2005), pp. 1135-1142 (8 pages) Let X be a compact Hausdorff space and A ⊂ C(X) a function algebra. Assume that X is the maximal ...

In math, Algebra 1 is a make-or-break course. The class is the gateway to high school math, and struggling to complete it can close off those higher-level pathways—and even jeopardize students’ ...
