Introduction Modeling, Functions, and Graphs
2
Modeling The ability to model problems or phenomena by algebraic expressions and equations is the ultimate goal of any algebra course The examples are designed with interactive investigation and to show how mathematical techniques are used for learning get opportunity to explore open-minded modeling problems. understand new situation
3
Functions Functions are useful not only in Calculus but in nearby every field students may pursue. We employ celebrated “ Rule of Four” all problems should be considered using Algebraic Method Verbal Algebraic Expression Numerical Graphical Students learn to write algebraic expression from verbal description, to recognize trends in a table of data, extract & interpret information from the graph of a function
4
Graphs No tool for conveying information about a system is more powerful than a graph Large number of examples are explained plotting by hand and using graphing calculator(TI 83/84)
5
Ch 1 - Linear Model Mathematical techniques are used to Analyze data Identify trends Predict the effects of change This quantitative methods are the concepts of skills of algebra You will use skills you learned in elementary algebra to solve problems and to study a variety of phenomena the description of relationships between variables by using equations, graphs, and table of values. This process is called Mathematical Modeling

Intercepts Consider the graph of the equation 3y – 4x = 12 The y-coordinate of the x-intercept is zero, so we set y = 0 in the equation to get 3(0) – 4x = 12 x = - 3 The x-intercept is the point (-3, 0). Also, the x-coordinate of the y-intercept is zero, so we set x = 0 in the equation to get 3y – 4(0) = 12 y = 4 The y-intercept is (0, 4) ( -3, 0) (0, 4)

Example 9, Pg = 10 x - y = 1 9 4 Set x = 0, 0 y 9 – 4 = 1 - y 4 = 1, y = - 4 The y-intercept is the point (0, - 4) Set y = 0, x - 0 = 1 9 4 x = 1, x = 9 9 The x-int is the point (9, 0) (0, -4) (9, 0) Find the intercepts and graph the equation

1.4 Equations of Lines ( Pg 40) y = 2x y = ½ x y = -2x These lines have the same y- intercept but different slopes y = 2x + 3 y = 2x + 1 y = 2x - 2 These lines have the same slope but different y - intercepts
19
1.4 Slope – Intercept Form y = mx + b ( m is slope of a line, and b is the y- intercept) 3x + 4y = 6 Subtract 3x from both sides 4y = - 3x + 6 Divide both sides by 4 y = - 3x + 3 4 2 m= -3 and b = 3 4 2 General Slope- Intercept Method of Graphing b Start here New point y = mx + b x y

1.5 Linear Regression (Lines of Best Fit) The datas in the scatterplot are roughly linear, we can estimate the location of imaginary”lines best fit” that passes as close as possible to the data points We can make the predictions about the data. The process of predicting a value of y based on a straightline that fits the data is called a linear regression, and the line itself called the regression line. The equation of the regression line is usually used(instead of graph) to predict values

112 96 80 64 48 20 40 60 80 100 Age (months) The graph is not linear because her rate of growth is not constant; her growth slows down as she approaches her adult height. The short time of interval the graph is close to a line, and that line can be used to approximate the coordinates of points on the curve. Height (cm) Interpolation- The process of estimating between known data points Extrapolation- Making predictions beyond the range of known data
