A function is
|
a relation in which each element of the domain (x value - independent variable ) is paired with only one element of the range ( y value - dependent variable )
|
A relation can be tested to see if it is a function by the vertical line test. Draw a vertical line through any graph, and if it hits an x-value more than once, it is not a function.
|
|
Linear functions take the form of
|
f(x) = mx + b
or y = mx + b |

|
TO be a function
|
the function on the graph can only be touched by the vertical line once
|
|
|
y = mx or f(x) = mx
|
On the graph is a straight line through the orgin (0,0) and the point (1,m).
m = slope |
|
|
Negative slope means the line goes down as you move from left to right.
|
if m is zero, then we would have a horizontal line, coinciding with the x-axis.
|
|
|
The bigger M is the more the line will tilt; so a big slope means steeply tilting line.
|
Negative slope means the line goes down as you move from left to right.
|
|
|
Definition; the variable y varies directly as x, if there is some positive constant m, such that y equal mx.

|
The weight m, in pounds, of an object on the Moon is directly proportional to the weight E of that object on Earth.
|
An astronaut who weighs a hundred eighty pounds on Earth will weigh twenty-eight point eight pounds on the Moon.
|
So we have capital M the weight on the moon is little m times capital E the weight on the Earth for any object.
M = mE |
|
A linear function is given by, y equal mx plus b or f(x) equal mx plus b,
|
and has a graph that is the straight line parallel to the graph of y equals mx and crossing the y-axis at the point (zero, b).
|
The point (zero, b) is called the y-intercept.
|
|
y equal mx plus b is called the slope-intercept equation of a line.
|
Because the graph is a straight line, its slope is m and its y-intercept is b; its vertical intercept.
|
So whenever, in fact, you increase x by a certain amount, y will increase by m times that amount.
|
|
y minus y-one equals m times x minus x-one is called the point slope equation of the line.
|
The point is (x-one, y-one) and the slope is m.
|
|
|
The slope of a line containing points (x-one, y-one) and (x-two, y-two) is m equals y-two minus y-one divided by x-two minus x-one,
|
which is the change in y divided by the change in x.
|
some times this change in y is denoted by delta y and the change in x is denoted by delta x,
|
|
A quadratic function is given by f(x) equal ax squared plus bx plus c, where a is not equal to zero.
|
f(x) = ax squared + bx + c
f(x) ax 2rd +bx + c |
The quadratic function because of this quadratic term, the ax squared, then cannot be a straight line. So curved line
|
|
