What's my function?
100

A rule that maps a number to another unique number

A fuunction

100

In a function, how many outputs can one input have?

Each input has one and only one output.

100

 What kind of function is this?

linear

100

A table of values for a linear function is given.  Fill in the missing value.
x      -1     0      1

y       3      8      ?

y = 13

100

Evaluate y = 2x +1 when x = -3

y = -5 

200

A function whole graph is a line

Linear function

200

Yes

200

What function is represented here?


Quadratic function

200

A table of values for a linear function is given.  Fill in the missing value.
x      -1     0      1

y       3      -2      ?

y = -7

200

Evaluate y= x2 + x + 1 when x = -5

y = 21

300
A function of degree two in the shape of a U

Quadratic function

300

Is this a function and why?

No because x=8 has two outputs (3 and -3)

300

Based on the graph of the function, what is y when x = 4?

y = -2

300

A table of values for a linear function is given.  Fill in the missing value.
x      2     3      5

y      2      1      ?

y = -1

300

Evaluate y = x2 - 2 when x = -2

y = 2

400

The simplest function of the family

Parent fucntion
400

Does the following table represent a function?
x      y
1      2
2      5
6      2
2      9
5      1

No, because the input (x) of 2 has two different outputs (y)


400

Based on the function, what is y when x = -3?

y = -3

400

A table of values for a linear function is given.  Fill in the missing value.
x      -21     0      21

y       -4      -7      ?


y = -10

400

Evaluate y = 4x2 - 1 when x= -2

y = 15

500
A function that involves exponents to find the growth or decay of something

Exponential function

500

No, vertical lines are not functions. 

500

What does the slope of a distance vs. time graph represent?

The speed of the object.

500

A table of values for a linear function is given.  Fill in the missing value.
x      3       7       10

y     -23    -55      ?

y = -79
