1.2 Graphs Of Functions Homework
Question: Vertical Line Test
Answer: Simple test use to determine if a graph represents a function.
==================================================
Question: Increasing Interval
Answer: A function f(x) is increasing in an interval if the graph is rising right.
==================================================
Question: Decreasing Interval
Answer: A function f(x) is decreasing in an interval if the graph is falling right, (rising left).
==================================================
Question: Constant Interval
Answer: A function f(x) is constant in an interval if it is NOT rising right, or rising left.
==================================================
Question: Relative Maximum
Answer: A point at which a function changes from increasing to decreasing.
==================================================
Question: Relative Minimum
Answer: A point at which a function changes changes from decreasing to increasing.
==================================================
Question: CALC, 3 Minimum
Answer: Used on a calculator to approximate the relative minimum of a graph.
==================================================
Question: CALC, 4 Maximum
Answer: Used on the calculator to approximate the relative maximum of a graph.
==================================================
Question: Greatest Integer Function
Answer: f(x) = [x]. Looks like a series of steps when it is graphed.
==================================================
Question: Symmetrical to x-axis
Answer: The graph contains (x, y) and (x, -y), and is not a function.
==================================================
Question: Even Function
Answer: A function that is symmetrical to the y-axis, and contains (x, y) and (-x, y).
==================================================
Question: Odd Function
Answer: A function that is symmetrical to the origin and contains (x, y), and (-x, -y).
