CFU: Parent Functions

Front

What is the domain of a function?

Back

The domain of a function is the set of all possible x values (inputs) for which the function is defined, typically represented as all x values from left to right.

Front

What is a parent function?

Back

A parent function is the simplest form of a function type that can be transformed to create more complex functions. Examples include linear, quadratic, and exponential functions.

Front

Identify the parent function: f(x) = x.

Back

This is a linear parent function.

Front

Identify the parent function: f(x) = x².

Back

This is a quadratic parent function.

Front

Identify the parent function: f(x) = |x|.

Back

This is an absolute value parent function.

Front

Identify the parent function: f(x) = √(x).

Back

This is a square root parent function.

Front

Identify the parent function: f(x) = a⋅b^x.

Back

This is an exponential parent function.

Front

What is the range of a function?

Back

The range of a function is the set of all possible y values (outputs) that the function can produce, typically represented as all y values from bottom to top.

Front

What is a linear function?

Back

A linear function is a function that graphs to a straight line and can be expressed in the form f(x) = mx + b, where m is the slope and b is the y-intercept.

Front

What is a quadratic function?

Back

A quadratic function is a polynomial function of degree 2, typically expressed in the form f(x) = ax² + bx + c, where a, b, and c are constants.
