Study Notes

Algebra Concepts

  • Domain: The set of all possible input values (X-values) for a function.
  • Range: The set of all possible output values (Y-values) for a function.

Functions

  • Y=X²: The parent function for quadratic functions, demonstrating parabolic behavior.
  • Steepness: A line's slope determines its steepness; changing the slope affects how steep the line appears.
  • Vertical Shift: Modifying the Y-intercept of a line results in a vertical shift up or down.

Slope Characteristics

  • Negative Slope: A line that decreases from left to right indicates a negative slope.
  • Positive Slope: A line that increases from left to right indicates a positive slope.
  • Slope Definition: Frequently described as the "rate of change," representing the rise over run in a graph.

Correlation Types

  • Positive Correlation: Scatterplots that trend upwards, indicating that as one variable increases, so does the other.
  • Negative Correlation: Scatterplots that trend downwards, indicating that as one variable increases, the other decreases.
  • No Correlation: Scatterplots with no discernible pattern show data points scattered randomly.

Equation Solutions

  • X-Intercepts: Also referred to as zeros, roots, or solutions, these are the points where a function crosses the X-axis.
  • Quadratic Equations: To solve quadratic equations, set the equation equal to zero (0) before proceeding.
  • Vertex: The highest or lowest point on a parabola, crucial for understanding the function's maximum or minimum behavior.

Graphing Characteristics

  • Line: The graphical representation of a linear function results in a straight line.
  • U-Shaped (Parabola): Quadratic functions are represented graphically as a U-shaped curve.
  • Boundary Line: In inequality graphs, if the boundary line is dashed, then points on the boundary are not included in the solution set.

Systems of Equations

  • Intersection: The solution to a system of equations is found at the point where the lines intersect on a graph.
