Is the following a function? Explain.
No. It does not pass the vertical line test.
Is the following equation linear? Explain.
y=2x^2+7
No since it cannot be written in the form y=mx+b
Evaluate f(4) if f(x)=1/2x-3
f(4)=-1
Solve 2x-3>=5
x>=4
Solve 2x-3=13
x=8
Is the function continuous or discrete?
Is it increasing or decreasing?
It is discrete and decreasing
Find the slope between (-1,5) and (7,3)
m=-1/4
Find x such that f(x)=12 when f(x)=1/3x-5
x=51
Write "The quotient of a number x and 5 is at most 6" as an inequality
x/5<=6
How many solutions does x+3=x-3 have?
None
Is {(-1,0), (2,5), (3,7), (2,8)} a function?
What about {(1,1), (1,1), (1,1), (1,1)}?
Explain your answer.
The first relation is not a function since 2 has both 5 and 8 as outputs.
The second relation is a function since 1 has only an output of 1.
State if the function is linear or non-linear. Explain.
Non-linear, must increase by a constant amount. Here it jumps from increasing by 4 to increasing by 20, then 100. Not a constant rate of change.
