INTRODUCTION: NEW UNIT ..
NEW FOCUS ..
Since we are looking at functions you can expect to be graphing,
identifying domain and range, transforming the functions, and
plugging in values for ‘x’ to calculate the f(x) values.

When asked about

‘rate of change’ over
an interval of the
graph we will be using
the slope formula from
linear functions to

GRAPH THE FUNCTION
WHAT ARE THE INTERCEPTS,
DOMAIN AND RANGE?
𝑓 ( 𝑥 )=− √ 𝑥
 

Steps
1. Make a table of
values
2. Your ‘x’ values
should be
perfect squares
3. You must have at
least 3 ordered
pairs in your
table before you

(8, 4) and (10, 4.5) 1. Input the values for ‘x’ that
≈ ≈ are given in the interval,
