Functional Equations in the Secondary School: Some Ideas for the Teacher.
Avital, Shmuel; Gupta, Haragauri N.
International Journal of Mathematical Education in Science and Technology, v9 n3 p349-54 Aug 1978, Aug78
In order to solve a functional equation, one must identify possible functions that satisfy a given equation. This paper seeks to convince the reader that students in high school could be exposed profitably to certain functional equations. Several examples of functional equations are given and discussed.
