I can… …Interpret graphs of functions. …Draw graphs of functions.
Function Output depends on input There is exactly one output for every input
A functions is graphed using a coordinate plane: x- coordinate y- coordinate
Independent vs. Dependent variables Distance a person runs over time Profit made when you raise or lower the selling price Average price of gasoline rises throughout the year Height and age
Typically independent is on the x-axis and dependent is on the y-axis Any measure of time (seconds, minutes, days, years, etc.) is almost always independent.
