Part 1: Unit Summary Answers Here

The document provides examples of assignments the student completed to learn various concepts in their math unit on functions. It also includes [1] a review of key concepts like evaluating functions, finding asymptotes, and combining functions; [2] practice problems to work through for the test; and [3] a challenge problem involving derivatives. The student felt the assignments helped them visualize concepts like asymptotes and understand how to systematically solve problems combining functions. They found evaluating functions straightforward but arithmetic of functions initially difficult until realizing being organized helps. Overall, the examples and practice are preparing the student for their test on functions.
