This video covers AP Precalculus Unit 1, focusing on polynomial and rational functions. It explains key concepts such as input-output values, rate of change, polynomial terminology, and end behavior. The video also introduces rational functions, asymptotes, and how to find zeros and holes. Additionally, it discusses transformations, constructing function models, and using calculators for modeling.

What does a positive rate of change indicate about the relationship between two quantities?

• Both remain constant

• Both increase or decrease together

• One increases, the other decreases

• One remains constant

In a quadratic function, what does the average rate of change over an interval represent?

• Constant rate
