Front

What does the function R represent in the context of rainfall?

Back

R represents the total rainfall, in cm, after x hours.

Front

How do you determine the rainfall after a specific number of hours using a graph?

Back

You locate the corresponding value on the y-axis for the given x value (hours) on the graph.

Front

What is the parent function of y = |x|?

Back

The parent function is the absolute value function, which outputs the non-negative value of x.

Front

What transformation occurs in the equation y = |x - 4| compared to y = |x|?

Back

The graph shifts to the right by 4 units.

Front

What is a maximum point on a graph?

Back

A maximum point is the highest point on the graph, where the function changes from increasing to decreasing.

Front

What is a minimum point on a graph?

Back

A minimum point is the lowest point on the graph, where the function changes from decreasing to increasing.

Front

What does the notation (x - 2)^3 + 4 indicate about the graph?

Back

It indicates a horizontal shift to the right by 2 units and a vertical shift up by 4 units.

Front

What is the significance of the vertex in a quadratic function?

Back

The vertex represents the maximum or minimum point of the parabola.

Front

How do you identify the x-intercept of a function?

Back

The x-intercept is found where the graph crosses the x-axis, meaning y = 0.

Front

How do you identify the y-intercept of a function?

Back

The y-intercept is found where the graph crosses the y-axis, meaning x = 0.
