Rational Functions ( f (x) = x) I made sense of rational functions by viewing them as Im pretty confident with this kind of

Evaluating Functions I made sense of evaluating functions by plugging in Im comfortable with evaluating
variables for answers. I simply saw x, y, or any other given functions because I know how to

took the examples from the beginning of this unit and for the values and placements of
functions on graphs.
looked back at them for examples on how to solve. So if x
= 4 in a function, I could simply replace x with 4 to find
the functions definition.
Ex : f(4) = 8 - 5(4)
f(x) = 8 - 5x f(4) = 8 - 20
x=4 f(4) = -12
The Arithmetic of Functions I made sense of the arithmetic of functions, simply by I feel fine about solving these kinds
seeing functions as numbers. For instance, if f(x) = -12 and of problems and creating new

through multiplication, division, subtraction, addition, or
any other functional actions.
Ex : f(4) = 8 - 5(4)
f(x) = 8 - 5x f(4) = 8 - 20
g(x) = 17x f(4) = -12
