Serious about math.

Problem #1    h(x) =l -2 l

Problem #2    x= -3


First, graph your functions so you can clearly describe the graphs in your
discussion. Your graph itself is not required in your post, although the
discussion of the graph is required. Make sure you have at least five points
for each equation to graph. Show all math work for finding the points.

   Mention any key points on the graphs, including intercepts, vertex, or
start/end points.  (Points with decimal values need not be listed, as they
might be found in a square root function. Stick to integer value points.)

   Discuss the general shape and location of each of your graphs.

   State the domain and range for each of your equations. Write them in
interval notation.

   State whether each of the equations is a function or not giving your
reasons for the answer.

   Select one of your graphs and assume it has been shifted three units
upward and four units to the left. Discuss how this transformation affects
the equation by rewriting the equation to incorporate those numbers.

   Incorporate the following five math vocabulary words into your
discussion. Use bold font to emphasize the words in your writing (Do not
write definitions for the words; use them appropriately in sentences
describing the thought behind your math work.):
       Function
       Relation
       Vertical Line test
       Transformation
