What is the domain of a function?
The set of all x-values or input values.
What are the negative intervals?
NONE
The x-values over which the y-values are positive.
What are the decreasing intervals?
(-1, infinity)
What do the domains of linear and quadratic functions have in common? Why is this?
Both All Real Numbers. There is no restriction on what you can input into the function
graph y = sq rt (x)
What is (see graph)
What are the decreasing values of a function?
The x-values over which the function goes down from left to right or when the value to the left is larger than the value on the right.
What are the negative intervals?
(-infinity, -3) U (1, infinity)
What is the domain of this graph?
What is (-infinity, infinity)
the range of this graph
What is [-3, infinity)
What is the equation of the graph?
y=3*sqrt(x+1)
How do you identify negative intervals given a graph?
Find the x-values where the graph is below the x-axis.
What is the equation of a square root function that has a range of (-3, infinity)?
must have a k/d value of -3!
the range of the parent function of a square root function reflected over the x-axis. Why?
What is [0, -infinity). You get positive outputs multiplied by a negative number
When will the end point of a positive interval be included (bracket) rather than excluded (parenthesis)?
When the value of the end-point itself is a positive value, not on the x-axis.
What are the Increasing Intervals?
(1, infinity)
