What do you notice about these three graphs?

When we notice ______________ symmetry, this suggests that the

function is ____________.

What do you notice about these three graphs?

When we notice ______________ symmetry, this suggests that the

function is ____________.

To determine whether a function is even or odd algebraically,

replace x with _________, and see what happens.
2

f ( x) = x 5

h ( x ) = 5x x

____________ function

____________

____________ function

____________

Consider the graph of the function shown. Determine the interval

where the function is

Increasing

Decreasing

Constant

Notice that anytime a graph changes from increasing to decreasing

(or vice versa), you get to a high point or a low point. We call these
points local ________________ or local ________________.
At what value(s) of x does the
function have a local minimum?

What are the local minimums?

What are the coordinates of any local maximums?

We can also use a graphing calculator to nd local mins (minima)

and local maxs (maxima).
Find the coordinates of any local maxs and local mins for the
function on the given interval.

f ( x ) = 2x 3 3x +1 for 2 < x < 2

You all remember how to nd the slope of a line (I hope), but in

calculus, we start to think about slopes of a curve. For now, we
will call this the ________________ rate of change.

Find the average rate of change for the function f ( x ) = x 2x + 3
