Chapter4 Algebra1

This document provides an overview of functions and their graphical representations. It discusses using graphs to show the relationship between two quantities, with the independent variable on the x-axis and dependent variable on the y-axis. Examples show representing patterns algebraically and graphing linear and nonlinear functions. The document also covers writing function rules to represent real-world situations and determining whether a relation is a function.

CHAPTER 4: AN

INTRODUCTION TO
FUNCTIONS
TEACHER MARIA AMANDA ARGUELLO
ALGEBRA 1 COMMON CORE
USING GRAPHS TO RELATE TWO
QUANTITIES
OBJECTIVES:

• TO REPRESENT MATHEMATICAL RELATIONSHIPS USING GRAPHS


PROBLEM 1: ANALYZING A GRAPH Essential
understanding:
You can analyze
the relationship in
a graph by
reading the titles.
The axis tells you
what variables are
related. The graph
itself represents
the relationship as
the variables
change
GOT IT: WHAT ARE THE VARIABLES IN EACH
GRAPH? DESCRIBE HOW THE VARIABLES ARE
RELATED AT VARIOUS POINTS ON THE GRAPH.
TABLES AND GRAPHS CAN BOTH SHOW A RELATIONSHIP
BETWEEN VARIABLES. DATA FROM A TABLE ARE OFTEN
VISUALLY DISPLAYED IN A GRAPH.
GOT IT 2
WHEN ONE QUANTITY DEPENDS ON ANOTHER, SHOW THE
INDEPENDENT QUANTITY ON THE HORIZONTAL AXIS AND
THE DEPENDENT QUANTITY ON THE VERTICAL AXIS
PROBLEM 3.1:
• When Malcom jogs on the treadmill, he gradually increases his speed until he
reaches a certain level. Then he jogs at this level for several minutes. Then he slows
to a stop and stretches after this he increases to a speed slightly lower than before and
jogs at this speed for a short while before slowing to a stop again. What is the
possible sketch of a graph that shows Malcom’s jogging speed during his workout?
Label each section.

LESSON PRACTICE
4.2: PATTERNS AND LINEAR FUNCTIONS
• OBJECTIVE: TO IDENTIFY AND REPRESENT PATTERNS THAT DESCRIBE LINEAR
FUNCTIONS
VOCABULARY

• Dependent variable: a variable whose value depends on the value of another


value; it changes in response to another variable
• Independent variable: value that causes a change on another variable; but is
independent of it.
• Inputs: Values of the independent variable (x-domain)
• Outputs: values of the dependent variable (y-range)
PROBLEM 1:
GOT IT: YOUR TURN NOW!

4.3: PATTERNS AND NONLINEAR FUNCTIONS
OBJECTIVES:

• TO IDENTIFY AND REPRESENT PATTERNS THAT DESCRIBE NONLINEAR FUNCTIONS


A NON-LINEAR FUNCTION, AS THE NAME
IMPLIES, IS A FUNCTION WHOSE GRAPH IS NOT
A LINE OR PART OF A LINE.
PROBLEM 1:
GOT IT 1:
PROBLEM 2:
4.4: GRAPHING A FUNCTION RULE
OBJECTIVE:

• TO GRAPH EQUATIONS THAT REPRESENT FUNCTIONS


THE SET OF ALL SOLUTIONS OF AN EQUATION FORMS THE
EQUATION’S GRAPH. A GRAPH MAY INCLUDE SOLUTIONS THAT
DO NOT APPEAR IN A TABLE. A REAL WORLD GRAPH SHOULD
ONLY SHOW POINTS THAT MAKE SENSE IN A GIVEN SITUATION.
PROBLEM 2:
PROBLEM 4.A
PROBLEM 4.B
GOT IT 3:
LESSON CHECK
4.5: WRITING A FUNCTION RULE
OBJECTIVE:

• TO WRITE EQUATIONS THAT REPRESENT FUNCTIONS


ESSENTIAL UNDERSTANDING: MANY REAL-WORLD
FUNCTIONAL RELATIONSHIPS CAN BE REPRESENTED BY
EQUATIONS. YOU CAN USE AN EQUATION TO FIND THE
SOLUTION OF A GIVEN REAL-WORLD PROBLEM.
AN ARCHERY CLUB CHARGES AN ANNUAL MEMBERSHIP FEE OF $65
PLUS $2 PER VISIT. WRITE THE FUNCTION RULE FOR THE TOTAL COST
OF BELONGING TO THE CLUB IF YOU MAKE V VISITS IN A YEAR. HOW
MUCH WOULD IT COST IF YOU USE THE CLUB 15 TIMES IN A YEAR?
4.6: FORMALIZING RELATIONS AND
FUNCTIONS
OBJECTIVES:

• TO DETERMINE WHETHER A RELATION IS A FUNCTION

• TO FIND DOMAIN AND RANGE AND USE FUNCTION NOTATION


4.7: ARITHMETIC SEQUENCES
OBJECTIVES:

• TO IDENTIFY AND EXTEND PATTERNS IN SEQUENCES

• TO REPRESENT ARITHMETIC SEQUENCES USING FUNCTION NOTATION
