3 Functions Part 2

This document provides an overview of common functions including their domains, ranges, and graphs. It covers constant functions, linear functions, quadratic functions, and root functions. For each type of function, it defines the key characteristics and provides examples of how to sketch graphs from equations. The document emphasizes identifying features like slopes, intercepts, vertices and using those features to plot points and sketch the graphs of different functions.
