101

What is this transformation?

f(x+h)

Shift left "h" units

101

What do all absolute value functions look like on a graph?

a "V" or upside-down "V"

101

What do all quadratic functions look like on a graph?

"U" or upside down "U"

101

What is the maximum or minimum of the following?

h(t) = -0.5(t-4)2+8

8

102

What is the parent function of Absolute Value? (give the equation)

f(x) = |x|

102

What is this transformation?

f(x) - k

Shift down "k" units

102

What is the ordered pair that represents our vertex?

Vertex is (h, k), where h is a liar

102

True or false: the "a" value in a quadratic function represents the slope

FALSE
102

True or False:

All absolute value functions can be written as piecewise functions.

TRUE

103

What is the parent function of Quadratics? (give the equation)

f(x) = x2

103

What is this transformation?

k• f(x) 

k times further from the x axis

103

What is the domain for all absolute value functions?

All Real Numbers

103

What is the domain for all quadratic functions?

All Real Numbers

103

How does the graph f(x+3) - 4 compare to the graph of f(x)?

It shifts f(x) left 3 units and down 4 units.

104

What is a function that would have one intersection with this graph?

Answers vary (same vertex, different "a" value)

104

What is this transformation?

f(kx)

1/k times further from the y axis

104

"a" is a negative number. What is the range of this function?

y ≤ h

104

Axis of Symmetry will always share the same ____ as the vertex.

x- coordinate

104

What is an x-intercept? 

The point where the function touches the x-axis.

105

What is a function that would have one intersection with this graph?

Answers vary (same vertex, different "a" value)

105

What is this transformation?

-a • f(x), a is negative

Reflect over the x-axis

105

What is the general formula for vertex form of absolute value functions?

f(x) = a|x-h|+k

105

How do I know if a function opens up or opens down?

If the "a" value is positive, it opens up. If "a" is negative, it opens down.
