Functions Regents Review #3 g(x) = |x – 5| y = ¾x f(x) = 2x – 5
y = -2x2 – 3x + 10 y = (x – 1)2

Which relation represents a Function?
Functions What is a function? A relation in which every x-value(input) is assigned to exactly one y-value (output) No x-value is repeated! Which relation represents a Function? x y 2 6 3 7 4 x y 2 6 7 4 Function Not a Function
3
Which graph represents a function?
Functions We can recognize functions using the vertical line test Vertical Line Test: If a graph intersects a vertical line in more than one place, the graph is not a function Which graph represents a function? Function Not a function
4
Functions Functions can be written using function notation “f(x)” means f of x Example: f(x) = 2x – 3 means the same as y = 2x – 3 g(x) = 2x – 3 means the same as y = 2x – 3 h(x) = 2x – 3 means the same as y = 2x – 3
5
Functions In this course, we explored four different Function Families
Linear Functions Quadratic Functions Exponential Functions Absolute Value Functions
6
Linear Functions Linear Functions “y = mx +b”
The best ways to graph a linear function are… Table of Values Slope-Intercept Method
7
Linear Functions Table of Values Method Graph 2x – 4y = 12 y = ½ x – 3
-4 -5 -2 -3 2 4 -1 2x – 4y = 12
8
Linear Functions Slope is a ratio: Slope Formula =
Before we discuss the Slope-Intercept Method, let’s discuss SLOPE Slope is a ratio: Slope Formula = 0 slope Undefined slope Positive Slope Parallel Lines have the same slope Negative Slope
9
Linear Functions Slope-Intercept Method y = mx + b m = slope
b = y –intercept (0,b) Graph 6x + 3y = 9 y = -2x + 3 m = b = 3 (0, 3) 6x + 3y = 9
10
Linear Functions Horizontal Lines Vertical Lines
y = b where b represents the y-intercept y = 4 Vertical Lines x = a where a represents the x-intercept x = 4 y = 4 x = 4
11
Linear Functions Writing the Equation of a Line Write the equation of a line that runs through the points (-3,1) and (0,-1) Find the slope (m) (-3,1) (0,-1) Find the y-intercept (b) y = mx + b Pt.(-3,1) 1 = (-2/3)(-3) + b 1 = 2 + b -1 = b Write the equation in “y = mx + b” y = x – 1 b = -1 m = -2/3
12
Linear Functions Write the equation of a line that is parallel to y – 2x = 4 and runs through the point (-2,4) Find the slope Parallel lines have the same slope y – 2x = y = 2x + 4 m = 2 Find the y-intercept y = mx + b Pt.(-2,4) 4 = 2(-2) + b 4 = -4 + b 8 = b b = 8 Write the equation in “y = mx + b” y = 2x + 8
13
Quadratic Functions Quadratic Functions “y = ax2 + bx + c”
How do we graph quadratic functions? Find the coordinates of the vertex Create a table of values Graph a parabola Label the graph with the quadratic equation
14
Quadratic Functions Graph y = x2 + 4x – 12 Vertex = (-2, -16)
Finding the coordinates of the vertex and the axis of symmetry Finding the x-coordinate y = x2 + 4x – 12 a = 1, b = 4, c = -12 x = x = x = -2 Finding the y-coordinate y = x2 + 4x – 12 y = (-2)2 + 4(-2) – 12 y = 4 – 8 – 12 y = -16 Vertex = (-2, -16) Also the equation for the axis of symmetry
15
Quadratic Functions Vertex (-2,-16) x-intercept (-6,0) Root: -6
(2,0) Root: 2 x y 1 -7 -12 -1 -15 -2 -16 -3 -4 -5 f(x) = x2 + 4x – 12 Axis of Symmetry x = -2
16
Quadratic Functions The x-values of the x-intercepts of the graph of a quadratic function are also known as the “roots”. We can identify the “roots” of a quadratic function by looking at the graph of a parabola and locating the x-intercepts. We can also identify the roots algebraically.
17
Quadratic Functions Finding “roots” algebraically
Let’s look at our previous example y = x2 + 4x – 12 In order to find the “roots” , set y equal to zero y = x2 + 4x – 12 0 = x2 + 4x – 12 0 = (x + 6)(x – 2) 0 = x = x – 2 -6 = x = x The roots of the function are -6 and 2
18
Quadratic Functions How does a affect the graph of y = ax2 + bx + c ?
If the coefficient of x2 gets larger, the parabola becomes narrower If the coefficient of x2 gets smaller, the parabola becomes wider If the coefficient of x2 is negative, the parabola opens downward
19
It represents the y-intercept
Quadratic Functions How does c affect the graph of y = ax2 + bx + c ? y = x2 y = x2 + 5 y = x2 – 5 It represents the y-intercept
20
Exponential Functions
There are two types of Exponential Functions Exponential Growth y = abx where b > 1 Exponential Decay y = abx where 0 < b < 1
21
Exponential Functions
Plots: Exponential Functions y = 2x y = ½ x x y -2 4 -1 2 1 x y -2 -1 1 2 4

Exponential Functions
Properties of Exponential Functions What happens to y = 2x when…. 5 is added multiplied by -1 y = 2x ) y = -2x
23
Exponential Functions
Exponential Growth Formula A = p(1 + r)t The cost of maintenance on an automobile increases each year by 8%. If Alberto paid $400 this year for maintenance for his car, what will the cost be (to the nearest dollar) seven years from now? a = p(1 + r)t a = 400( )7 a = 400(1.08)7 a = … The cost will be $686.00
24
Exponential Functions
Exponential Decay Formula A = p(1 – r)t A used car was purchased in July 1999 for $12,900. If the car loses 14% of its value each year, what was the value of the car (to the nearest penny) in July 2003? a = p(1 – r)t a = 12,900(1 – .14)4 a = 12,900(.86)4 a = … The cost of the car was $
25
Absolute Value Functions
Absolute Value Functions “y = |x|” How do you an input an absolute value function into a graphing calculator? Y = Math arrow over to NUM #1 abs( Input x Graph
26
Absolute Value Functions
Properties of Absolute Value Functions What happens to y = |x| when…. 5 is added multiplied by -1 y = |x| ) y = -|x|
27
Absolute Value Functions
Properties of Absolute Value Functions What happens to y = |x| when a number other than 1 is multiplied by x? As the coefficient of x gets larger, the graph becomes thinner As the coefficient of x gets smaller, the graph becomes wider
