What does a vertical compression of a function mean?

Back

A vertical compression occurs when the output values of a function are multiplied by a factor less than 1, making the graph flatter.

Front

Back

The graph undergoes a vertical compression by a factor of 0.25, shifts right by 4 units, and shifts up by 3 units.

Back

The domain excludes 11 because the function is undefined at that point.

Front

Back

The range excludes 3 because the function approaches but never reaches that value.

Front

What does it mean for a function to have a domain that excludes a certain value?

Back

It means that the function is not defined for that value, often due to division by zero.

What is the significance of the vertical asymptote in a rational function?

Back

The vertical asymptote indicates the value of x where the function approaches infinity or negative infinity.
