100

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

List your RANGE (outputs):

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

(4, 6 , 8)

100

Is this linear or non-linear?

Non-linear

100

What is a linear function? 

a linear function is a straight line. It is also a nonvertical line.

200

Can a function have multiple x-intercepts? if yes, give an example we went over in class. 

The wave. Heart rate Graph.

200

Is this a function and why?

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

200

Find the DOMAIN (inputs):

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

What is {-2, 3, 2}?

200

Linear or non-linear? 

Linear

200

What is the domain of a function?

The domain is the set of all possible input values (x-values)

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


300

This graph is not a function.

Graph 1

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

300

What is the difference between Discrete and Continuous domain?

Discrete domain contains specific numbers while continuous domain is an interval of infinite numbers.

400

What visual test can be used to determine if a graph is a function?

What is the Vertical Line Test?

400

Which of the following is not a function?

a.) (0,1), (1,2), (2,3), (3,4)

b.) (0,2), (1,3), (4,3), (1,2)

c.) (1,3), (4,2), (2,0), (3,4)

d.) (1,2), (2,2), (3,2), (4,2)

B

1 can not have an output of 3 and 2 

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

400

How do you recognize the equation of linear function?

y=mx+b   .   The exponent of x and y is always 1.
500

Can a function have multiple y-intercept? explain

No, because it will not be a function if it has more than one y-intercept since the vertical line test will cross the graph multiple times. 

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 

500

What does F(x) stands for?

It's is the function notation. It represents the output or the y-value of the function. 

600

Is (2,5), (3,6), (4, 7) and (-3,6) a function?

YES

600

What is happening to the function between the interval x=2 and x=3?

It is decreasing

600

Choice _______ is an equation of a linear function: 

A) y=x2 + x + 1

B) y=2x-1

C) y= -3x2+ 2

D) y = x3

B

600

What is a function?

A function is a relation where each input has one output.
