Objective : 1)Students will be able to identify linear, exponential, and quadratic equations when given an equation, graph, or table. 2)Students will be able to write equations for linear and exponential functions.
The graph of a linear function is a line. A linear equation is an algebraic equation in which each term is either a constant or the product of a constant and a single variable. Linear equations can have one or more variables. Linear equations do not have exponents or radicals.
Linear functions will have an ADDITION pattern in their tables.
Exponential functions are in the form Exponential function’s tables will have a MULTIPLICATION pattern
y-intercept (x will always = 0) Multiplication factor of y in table
Quadratic equations contain a single variable of degree 2.
