3.A. I can identify, indicate, and
explain the key features of the graph
of a function: intercepts, intervals of
increasing or decreasing slope,
intervals of positive or negative
values, relative maximums and
minimums, symmetries, end
behavior, and periodicity
3.B. I can input a function into a
graphing calculator and calculate the
intercepts and relative extrema using
the appropriate calculator processes.
3.C. I can interpret and explain the
relevance of the key features of a
graph of a function to the real-world
relationship between the two
variables that are represented.
3.D. I can calculate and interpret the
average rate of change of a function
over a specified interval. I can also
estimate the rate of change from the
graph of a function.

REMEMBER: The BEST way to learn these standards is to pay attention in class, work hard in
class, AND PRACTICE AT HOME 
Levels:
4: I totally got this…I’m pretty much an expert!!!
3: I understand what to do but maybe make a few simple or careless errors.
2: I understand parts but I depend on my notes or classmates to help me.
1: I have no idea how to start the problem.
