Algebra 2 Unit 7 Lesson 7 Flashcards

Understanding Functions and Equations

• Selecting the appropriate equation or inequality is crucial for representing functional relationships based on given points.

Function Representation

• f(x) = x^(1/2) represents a square root function, indicating the output is the square root of the input value x.
• It is defined for x ≥ 0, as square roots of negative numbers are not real numbers.

Another Function Example

• f(x) = 1 + 3√x indicates a function that combines a constant (1) and a term scaled by the square root of x.
• This function is also defined for x ≥ 0 and represents a transformation of the square root function.

General Points of Function Definition

• Each given function can be analyzed by plugging in different x values to observe how the output changes, helping to visualize their graphs and behaviors.
• Understanding the domain and range of these functions is essential in algebra for solving inequalities and equations effectively.
