What is a quadratic function?

Back

Front

What is a geometric sequence?

Back

A geometric sequence is a sequence of numbers where each term after the first is found by multiplying the previous term by a fixed, non-zero number called the common ratio.

Front

What does it mean to find the inverse of a function?

Back

Front

What is the transformation of a function?

Back

Transformations of a function include shifts, stretches, compressions, and reflections that change the position or shape of the graph of the function.

Front

What is the absolute value of a number?

Back

Front

What is a vertical stretch of a function?

Back

A vertical stretch occurs when the output values of a function are multiplied by a factor greater than 1, making the graph taller.

Front

What is a horizontal shift in a function?

Back

A horizontal shift moves the graph of a function left or right along the x-axis, determined by adding or subtracting a value from the input variable.

Front

How do you solve an absolute value equation?

Back

To solve an absolute value equation, set up two separate equations: one for the positive case and one for the negative case, then solve each equation.

Front

What is the common ratio in a geometric sequence?

Back

The common ratio in a geometric sequence is the factor by which each term is multiplied to get the next term.

Front

What is a vertical compression of a function?

Back

A vertical compression occurs when the output values of a function are multiplied by a factor between 0 and 1, making the graph shorter.
