Answer

The term function represents the dependency of one variable on another variable. It says that for a particular value of the input variable, the output variable has a fixed particular value.

Work Step by Step

For example, If equation $f=2x+1$ then the value of f is dependent on the value of the variable x.And we represent f as$f\left( x \right)$and say that f is a function of x. The function is written as, $f\left( x \right)=2x+1$ There will be output value for the every input value. The possible value for which the function is defined is called a domain, and the possible resultant value for the domain values is called range.
