Essential Understanding:
Creating different representations of functions to model the relationships
between variables, visually and symbolically as graphs, equations and tables
represents different ways to communicate mathematical ideas.
Conceptual Understanding:
• Different representations of functions, symbolically and visually as
graphs, equations and tables provide different ways to communicate
mathematical relationships.
• The parameters in a function or equation correspond to geometrical
features of a graph and can represent physical quantities in spatial
dimensions.
