Typically, functions are graphed on x-y coordinates. A function of x means that for every x point, there must be a single y point. You can also many properties by graphing a function, such as the minimum and maximum points, slopes and inflection points, and the inverse of the function (y values plotted on x coordinate, and x values on y coordinate).
There are different types of interval estimates. Given a rounded value for some measure, the interval estimate, based on rounding, is the interval from the minimum value that would be rounded up to the given value to the maximum value that would be rounded down to the given value. For example, given 4.5 with rounding to the tenths, the minimum of the interval is 4.45 and the maximum is 4.55 so that the interval estimate is (4.45, 4.55). Statistical interval estimates for a random variable (RV) are probabilistic. For example, given some probability measure (for example 95% or 5% significance level), the interval estimate for a random variable is any interval such that the probability of the true value being inside that interval is 95%. Often the interval is symmetrical about the mean value of the RV that is being estimated, but this need not be the case - particularly if the RV is near an extreme of the distribution.
The "maximum" function.
Find the maximum and minimum values that the function can take over all the values in the domain for the input. The range is the maximum minus the minimum.
