Functions

FAC.F.12Understand that a function from one set (called the domain) to another set (called the range) assigns to each element of the domain exactly one element of the range. Use function notation, where appropriate. (F-IF.1, F-IF.2)FAC.F.13Compare and contrast a function and a relation. Use appropriate strategies to assess whether a given situation represents a function or a relation (e.g,. the vertical line test).FAC.F.14Relate the domain of a function to its graph and, where applicable, to the quantitative relationship it describes. (F-IF.7)FAC.F.15Determine the rate of change of a linear function from a description of a relationship or from two (x, y) values, including reading these from a table or from a graph. (8.F.4) Use the rate of change to determine if two lines are parallel, perpendicular, or neither.FAC.F.16Interpret the rate of change and initial value of a linear function in terms of the situation it models, and in terms of its graph or a table of values. (8.F.4)FAC.F.17Create and graph the equation of a linear function given the rate of change and y-intercept. Compare and contrast up to three linear functions written in a various forms (i.e., point-slope, slope-intercept, standard form).FAC.F.18Given two points, a graph, a table of values, a mapping, or a real-world context determine the linear function that models this information. Fluently convert between the point-slope, slope-intercept, and standard form of a line.FAC.F.19Create and identify the parent function for linear and quadratic functions in the Coordinate Plane.FAC.F.20Compare the properties of two functions each represented in a different way (algebraically, graphically, numerically in tables, or by verbal descriptions). For example, given a linear function represented by a table of values and a linear function represented by an algebraic expression, determine which function has the greater rate of change. (Limited to linear and quadratic functions only.) (8.F.2)FAC.F.21Describe the following characteristics of linear and quadratic parent functions by inspection: domain/range, increasing/decreasing intervals, intercepts, symmetry, and asymptotic behavior. Identify each characteristic in set notation or words, where appropriate. (Algebra III, standard 8)FAC.F.22Graph a system of two functions, f(x) and g(x), on the same Coordinate Plane by hand for simple cases, and with technology for complicated cases. Explain the relationship between the point(s) of intersection and the solution to the system. Determine the solution(s) using technology, a tables of values, substitution, or successive approximations. (Limited to linear and quadratic functions only.) (8.EE.7b, A-REI.6, A-REI.11)FAC.F.23With accuracy, graph the solutions to a linear inequality in two variables as a half-plane, and graph the solution set to a system of linear inequalities in two variables as the intersection of the corresponding half-planes on the same Coordinate Plane. (A-REI.12) Construct graphs of linear inequalities and systems of linear inequalities without technology. Use appropriate strategies to verify points that may or may not belong to the solution set.FAC.F.24Identify real-world contexts that can be modeled by a system of inequalities in two variables. (Limited to three inequalities.)FAC.F.25Identify when systems of equations and inequalities have constraints. (A-CED.3)FAC.F.26Perform simple translations on linear functions given in a variety of forms (e.g., two points, a graph, a table of values, a mapping, slope-intercept form, or standard form). Explain the impact on the parent function when the slope is greater than one or less than one and the effect of increasing/decreasing the y-intercept.FAC.F.27Given the graph of function in the form f(x) + k, kf(x), f(kx), or f(x + k) , where k belongs to the set of integers, identify the domain/range, increasing/decreasing intervals, intercepts, symmetry, and asymptotic behavior, where appropriate. (F-BF.3) Identify each characteristic in set notation or as an inequality, where appropriate. (Limited to linear and quadratic functions only.)FAC.F.28Identify and graph real-world contexts that can be modeled by a quadratic equation.FAC.F.29Solve quadratic equations in standard form by factoring, graphing, tables, and the Quadratic Formula. Know when the Quadratic Formula might yield complex solutions and the location of the solutions in relationship to the x-axis. Know suitable alternatives for the terminology “solution of a quadratic” and when each is appropriate to use.FAC.F.30Understand the relationship between the constants of a quadratic equation and the attributes of the graph. Recognize the relationship between the value of the discriminant and the type and number of solutions (i.e., predict the characteristics of a graph given the equation).
