  1. Dependent Variable: The variable that depends upon the value of another. 4.2 Patterns and Linear Functions: Independent Variable: The variable that is not dependent. Input: The values of the independent variable. Output: The values of the dependent variable.

  2. Function  f(x): A relationship that pairs one input to exactly one output (x, y) Linear Function: A function whose graph is a nonvertical line or part of a nonvertical line.

  3. GOAL:

  4. In math we use tables, words, equations, set of ordered pairs and graphs to represent a relationship between two variables. This can be done when we are presented with the following: 1. Geometric Relationships, 2. Linear Functions

  5. GEOMETRIC RELATIONSHIPS: Ex: Use words, an equation, a table and a graph to represent the relationship between the number of rectangles and the perimeter of the figure.

  6. Words: Look at the figure, multiply the number of rectangles by 2 to get the total lengths of the top an bottom sides of the combined figure. Then add 2 times the length of the left and right sides of the combined figure to obtain the final answer for the total perimeter of the figure.

  7. Equation: Look at the figure: We must realize that the only thing that is changing is the number of the short side (width). Also, the number of the length is constant which is = 12. Using this info we see that the equation is: y or f(x) = twice the number of short + twice the length. f(x) = 2x + 12

  8. Table: Looking at the figures we see that: X = number of rectangles (independent)y = Perimeter of the figure (depends on figure)

  9. Graph: 22 20 18 Perimeter 16 14 12 10 8 6 4 2 1 4 2 3 5 Figure

  10. YOU TRY IT: Use one method to represent the relationship between the number of triangles and the perimeter. 1 1 1 1 1 1 1 1 1 1 1 1

  11. Words: Triangles = 1 Perimeter = 3 1 1 1 1 Triangles = 2 Perimeter = 4 1 1 1 1 1 1 Triangles = 3 Perimeter = 5 1 1 Look at the figure, The perimeter is 2 more than the number of triangles.

  12. Equation: Again, the perimeter [ y or f(x)] is 2 more than the number of triangles (x) y = x + 2 f(x) = x + 2

  13. Table: Looking at the figures we see that: X = number of rectangles (independent)y = Perimeter of the figure (depends on figure)

  14. Graph: 10 9 Perimeter 8 7 6 5 4 3 2 1 1 4 2 3 5 Figure Q: What is the value of y if x = 0?

  15. LINEAR FUNCTIONS:Data from a table can be scrutinize to see if it is a linear relation. In order for us to make the final decision, we first must see how the y – function, changes for each x in the table. Ex: Is there a linear relation in this table?

  16. To answer the question we must take a look at what is happening in the table. + 1 + 1 + 1 - 3 - 3 - 3 The starting memory is 512 MG The independent variable x increases by 1 The dependent variable y decreases by 3

  17. Taking the info to consideration, we can see that the equation for the problem is: + 1 + 1 + 1 - 3 - 3 - 3 y = 512 – 3x The dependent variable y decreases by 3

  18. YOU TRY IT: For the table, determine whether the relationship is a linear function. Then represent the relationship using words, an equation and a graph.

  19. YOU TRY IT: (SOLUTION) Looking at both variables, we have: +8 +1 +8 +1 +8 +1 Both, the x and y are changing at a constant rate.

  20. YOU TRY IT: (Words Solution): A person had 10 dollars and then starts a job where he earns eight dollars per hour.

  21. YOU TRY IT: (Equation Solution): We started with 10 dollars and earn 8 after each hour. y = 8x + 10 f(x) = 8x + 10

  22. YOU TRY IT: (Graph Solution) 35 30 Money $ 25 20 15 10 5 1 2 3 Hours Q: What will the total money after 4 hrs?.
