6.2 Connections between tables, graphs, and equation

Front

What is the parent function of a cubic equation?

Back

Cubic function is the parent function of the form y = x^3.

Front

What does the graph of y = -x + 2 look like?

Back

The graph is a straight line with a slope of -1 and a y-intercept of 2.

Front

How do you determine which graph matches a given table of values?

Back

You plot the points from the table and see which graph passes through those points.

Front

What is the parent function of a quadratic equation?

Back

Quadratic function is the parent function of the form y = x^2.

Front

Which equation represents a line that has a y-intercept of 3?

Back

y = x + 3 has a y-intercept of 3.

Front

What is the general form of a linear equation?

Back

The general form is y = mx + b, where m is the slope and b is the y-intercept.

Front

What is the significance of the slope in a linear equation?

Back

The slope indicates the steepness and direction of the line.

Front

How can you identify a quadratic function from its graph?

Back

A quadratic function's graph is a parabola that opens upwards or downwards.

Front

What is the relationship between a table of values and its corresponding graph?

Back

Each pair of values in the table corresponds to a point on the graph.

Front

What does a negative slope indicate about a linear function?

Back

A negative slope indicates that as x increases, y decreases.
