Linear Polynomial Absolute Value Quadratic Square root Rational Greatest Integer Sinusoids Click for quiz
Linear • Graphs a line • The general form is: F(x)=mx+b • M is the slope of the line • B is where the line crosses the y-axis • Practical Use: Distance travel at a constant speed Back to main menu
Quadratic • Graphs a Parabola. • Standard form: F(x)=Ax2+Bx+C • Vertex Form: F(x)=a(x-h)2+k • A is the Stretch of the graph • -H is the horizontal shift • K is the Vertical shift • Practical Use: A ball throw straight up is the air. Back to main menu
Absolute Value • Graphs a “V” • The general Form: F(x)=a|x-h|+k • a is the stretch of the graph • -h is horizontal shift • k is the vertical shift • Practical use: Distance as one passes the reference point Back to main menu
Polynomials • Graphs “hills and valleys” • Standard form: F(x)=xn+xn-1+xn-2 … +x2+x+c • Use Critical Points to graph this function. • Practical Use: Falcon’s height over time. Back to main menu
Square root • Graphs half of a sideways parabola . • F(x) = a√(b(x-h))+k • A is the stretch of the graph • H is the horizontal shift • K is the vertical shift • Practical Use: Distance vs time with a decelerating car. Back to main menu
Rational graph • Graphs disconjoined curves. • F(x)= • f(x) and g(x) are both polynomial functions Back to main menu
Sinusoids • Graph a oscillating curve. • F(x) = a sin(bx – c) + d or F(x) = a cos(bx– c) + d • A is the amplitude. • B is the period • C is the horizontal shift • D is the vertical shift • Practical Uses: AC Electrical Current vs time. Back to main menu
Greater Integer • Graphs “steps” • F(x) = • A affects the step’s spacing • B affects the step’s length • C shifts the graph vertically. • Practical Use: Price of mailing a package vs weigh of package. Back to main menu
Quiz Click on the correct answer: Which function would graph an oscillating curve? • F(x) = (X2 +1)/x • F(x) = Sin (2x) • F(x) = X + 4 • F(x) = |x - 3| + 4
