Non-Linear Functions

Functions

Graphs

Tables

Equations

Students will be able to:

·         Determine if a relationship is a function from a table

·         Determine if a relationship is a function from a mapping

·         Determine if a relationship is a function from a scatterplot

·         Determine if a relationship is a function from a graph

·         Coherently explain why a relationship is or is not a function

·         Write their own examples of functions and non-functions

Students will be able to classify graphs as:

·         linear

·         exponential

·         quadratic

·         absolute value

·         or none of these

Students will be able to:

·         classify a consistent table as a quadratic, exponential, absolute value, or other function.

·         Describe the rate of change from a table

·         Recognize a constant difference in the rate of change values is quadratic

·         Recognize that the rate of change values are changing by a multiple as being exponential

·         Recognize that if the function-values are decreasing at a constant rate for half of the function and increasing by the opposite rate of change for the other half, the function is absolute value

·         Make predictions from a table

Students will be able to classify equations as:

·         linear

·         exponential

·         quadratic

·         absolute value

or none of these
