Study Notes

Independent and Dependent Variables

  • An independent variable does not rely on any other variable for its value.
  • A dependent variable relies on the value of the independent variable.

Function Types

  • Linear Absolute Value Function is represented by the equation:
    • f(x) = a |x - h| + k
  • Quadratic Equation is represented by:
    • f(x) = ax² + bx + c
  • Linear Equation is expressed as:
    • f(x) = mx + b
  • Exponential Equation is given by:
    • f(x) = a * b^x

Graph Characteristics

  • Discrete Graphs consist of points that are all integers, plotted separately on the graph.
  • Continuous Graphs feature points that represent all real numbers, forming a connected graph.
  • A U-shaped graph indicates a quadratic relationship.
  • A V-shaped graph represents a linear absolute value relationship.
  • An exponential graph shows a curved line that can either increase or decrease based on the growth factor.

Numerical Classes

  • Real Numbers include all types of numbers, encompassing decimals and fractions.
  • Integers consist of whole numbers without any decimals or fractions.

Important Concepts

  • A linear graph forms a straight line, which can either incline or decline based on the values of its slope.
  • The notation f(x)= indicates that the equation is a function, whereas x=# signifies it is not a function.
  • A horizontal line is represented by the equation:
    • f(y) = #, indicating a constant value of y across all x values.
