x = 2

Front

What does a negative slope indicate about a graph?

Back

A negative slope indicates that as the x-values increase, the y-values decrease.

Front

What is the effect of a vertical stretch on a function?

Back

A vertical stretch makes the graph of the function taller and narrower compared to the parent function.

Front

What is the minimum degree of a polynomial with 4 turns?

Back

The minimum degree is 5.

Front

What does it mean for a function to be reflected over the x-axis?

Back

It means that the y-values of the function are multiplied by -1.

Front
