• No, if I draw a vertical line, it crosses twice.

• Yes - if I draw a vertical line, it crosses only once.

• No - it's a perfect circle.

Which of the two linear functions above has the higher rate of change?  Explain.

• The blue one because it is the most steep.

Is the graph a function?  Explain.

• Yes, because if I draw a vertical line, it only crosses once.

• No, because if I draw a vertical line, it crosses more than once.

• No because it is not a straight line.

• Yes because it looks like an S.

Is the graph a function?  Explain.

• Yes, because if I draw a vertical line, it only crosses once.

• No because if I draw a vertical line, it crosses more than once

• Yes because it does not go into the negative numbers

• No because it's not a straight line

What is the domain of the function?

• All real numbers

• All real numbers greater than -3

• All real number less than -3
