Algebra 2 - Function Families - Q1- Minor Assessment #1

Front

What is an inequality in interval notation?

Back

An inequality in interval notation expresses a range of values. For example, (-∞,-2)⋃(5,∞) means all values less than -2 and greater than 5.

Front

What function family does the equation y = x^2 belong to?

Back

Quadratic function family.

Front

What is the parent function of an absolute value function?

Back

The parent function is y = |x|.

Front

What is the general form of a linear function?

Back

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

Front

What does the term 'parent function' mean?

Back

A parent function is the simplest form of a function family that retains the essential characteristics of that family.

Front

What is the graph of a quadratic function?

Back

The graph of a quadratic function is a parabola that opens upwards or downwards.

Front

What is the difference between a linear function and a quadratic function?

Back

A linear function has a constant rate of change and graphs as a straight line, while a quadratic function has a variable rate of change and graphs as a parabola.

Front

What is an exponential function?

Back

An exponential function is a function of the form y = a⋅b^x, where a is a constant, b is the base, and x is the exponent.

Front

What does it mean for a function to be 'none of the above'?

Back

It means that the function does not fit into any of the specified categories or families.

Front

How do you identify the function family of a given graph?

Back

You can identify the function family by analyzing the shape of the graph and its characteristics.
