How can you tell if a set of data is a function? 

For every input, you have only one output. 

100

YES! NO input values repeat.

100

Find the slope of the line below using rise/run.

Rise = 2

Run = 3

100

List your RANGE (outputs):

(2, 4), (3, 6) (4, 8)

(4, 6 , 8)

100

Is this linear or non-linear?

Non-linear

200

When writing our answer, what do we need to include in our writing? 

Claim, Evidence, and Reasoning

200

Is this a function and why?

No, because 8 (input) has two outputs 3 and -3.

200

What is the formula for finding rate of change? 

y2−y1/x2-x1

200

Find the DOMAIN (inputs):

{(-2, 4), (3, 2), (2, 10)}

What is {-2, 3, 2}?

200

Linear or non-linear? 

Linear

300

What is slope-intercept form?

What does each variable stand for?

y= mx+ b

m= Slope, Rate, Rate of Change, Constant Rate of Change

b= Y-Intercept, Starting Point, Initial Value, Constant

(x, y): Points

This graph is not a function.

Graph 1

300

A linear function has the rule shown:

Input (x): a number

Output (y): 7 more than 9 times x

Write an equation to represent the linear function.

y= 9x +7

300

The shaded region is increasing, decreasing, or constant.


Decreasing Interval

300

Is this linear or non-linear? If linear, what is the constant Rate of Change?

Linear Function

Rate of Change= 1/2

B

1 can not have an output of 3 and 2 

400

The table shows that the total cost of a ride-sharing trip, y, is a function of the distance traveled, x. 

What is the rate of change and what does it mean?

Distance (mi), x: 0, 1, 2, 3, 4

Total Cost ($), y: 2, 5, 8, 11, 14

$3 per mile

400

Find the two intervals of the graph shown.

Write the points.

Starting Point: (-6, 3)

(-4,-3) , (-2,6), (2,2), & (5,2)

Ending Point: (6,-1)

400

Is this linear or non-linear? If linear, what is the constant Rate of change?

Linear Function

Rate of Change: 3/2

500

What is a Qualitative Graph?

A Qualitative Graph represents a relationship between quantities without numbers.

500

Which relation is NOT a function?

a.) (1,-5), (3,1), (-5,4), (4,-2)

b.) (2,7), (3,7), (4,7), (5,8)

c.) (1,-5), (-1,6), (1,5), (6,-3)

d.) (3,-2), (5,-6), (7,7), (8,8)

1 can't have a output of -5 and 5

500

Write an equation to represent the function.

y= 20x

500

Does the table depict an linear or non-linear function?

Non-linear 

600

What are intervals?

The period of time between two points of time or events.

600
