Mathematical Journey/Introduction to Functions/Objectives

Title: Functions

Why: Functions are everywhere in real-world situations where one variable depends on another. For example, the amount of an hourly employee’s pay depends on the number of hours worked. Therefore, amount of pay is a function of the number of hours worked.
