Use function notation, evaluate functions on their domains, and interpret notation in context.
Interpret function notation
Problem
Interpret \(f(3)\).
Big Picture
What this problem is really about
Read function notation as a machine name followed by its supplied input. Because a particular input is already inside the parentheses, the task is to determine the single output assigned to it. We’ll contrast that meaning with multiplication and with the inverse question of finding inputs for a given output.
